Gather Your Supplies
You will need:
- A clean white cotton cloth
- Dishwashing liquid
- White vinegar
- Baking soda
- Cotton swabs

Apply Dishwashing Liquid
First, dampen the stained area of the silk fabric with a clean white cotton cloth. Then, apply a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Gently press the cloth into the stained area. Work the dishwashing liquid into the fabric in a circular motion, taking care not to damage the fabric. Leave the dishwashing liquid on for up to 10 minutes.
Rinse the Fabric
Once you have worked dishwashing liquid into fabric, rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Make sure all the dishwashing liquid is removed.
Apply White Vinegar or Rubbing Alcohol
If the stain has not been completely removed by the dishwashing liquid, apply either white vinegar or rubbing alcohol to the area. Take a cotton swab and dab the stained area with vinegar or alcohol, working it into the fabric. Leave the vinegar or alcohol on for 10 minutes.
Rinse Again
Rinse out the vinegar or alcohol with warm water. If the stain persists, add a few drops of dishwashing liquid to a small amount of baking soda. Use a cotton swab to massage the mixture gently into stained area. Leave the solution on the fabric for a few minutes. Rinse with warm water and repeat as necessary.
Conclusion
Glue stains don't have to ruin delicate silk garments. With the right cleaning techniques and products, stubborn glue stains can be removed without causing any damage to the fabric. With patience and determination, you can restore your silk charmeuse garment to its original beauty.
