Removing Fresh Glue Stains from Rosepoint Lace
If you have spilled fresh glue on your Rosepoint lace, the best way to remove it is with warm soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Make sure you use a mild detergent, such as dish soap, and lukewarm water to prevent the fabric from shrinking or discoloring. Gently rub the sponge or cloth in a circular motion until the glue comes off, then rinse with cold water and leave to air dry.
Removing Dried Glue Stains from Rosepoint Lace
If you have a dried-on glue stain on your Rosepoint lace, you can use one of following methods to remove it. Start by scraping as much of glue off as possible using the back of a knife. Then, try one of the following methods:
- Vinegar and water: Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a bowl, then dip a rag into the mixture. Dab the glue stain until it starts to soften, then gently rub the glue away with a soft, non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Don’t scrub too hard, as this could damage the delicate fabric.
- Rubbing alcohol: Soak a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol, then dab the glue stain with the saturated cotton ball. Keep dabbing until the glue starts to dissolve, then wipe away with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Be sure to rinse with cold water afterwards.
Aftercare
Once glue has been completely removed, it is important to take proper care of the fabric. Hand wash the lace in lukewarm water with a mild detergent, then hang to dry on a flat surface or lay flat on a towel. Do not put in the dryer as this can cause the fabric to shrink.
