Accidents can happen when you use glue around the house, especially with delicate fabrics like sarongs. When this happens, don't panic! There are several simple techniques you can use to get rid of glue stains from your sarong without damaging it.
If you catch the glue spill as soon as it happens, there's a good chance you can wipe it off with a damp cloth. Dip the cloth in warm, soapy water then gently dab the stain. Once excess glue is gone, rinse the area with warm water and then blot it dry with a clean towel.
For dried glue spills, you'll need some white vinegar and rubbing alcohol. Mix equal parts of both in a bowl and then use a soft cloth to apply the solution to the stained area. Let it soak for 1-2 minutes, and then dab away any remaining glue. Use a clean, dry cloth to remove any excess moisture then let area air dry.
Glue is often used to attach embellishments like sequins and beads to sarongs. If glue gets on these embellishments, use tweezers to carefully pull them off. Then, gently scrape away any residue with a dull knife. Finally, use a clean cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol to wipe away any excess glue.
Removing glue stains from sarongs doesn't have to be a difficult task. Whether you're dealing with fresh or dried glue spills, following the steps outlined above will help you get rid of bothersome glue stains quickly and easily.
