How to Remove Glue Stains
- Read the care label to determine which cleaner to use. Use a mild soap and warm water solution for fabrics that are machine-washable.
- Using a soft bristled brush, lightly brush the area around the glue stain. This will help loosen the stain and make it easier to remove.
- Dip a clean cloth in the cleaning solution and dab gently on the stained area. Do not scrub or rub the fabric. This will make the stain worse.
- If the stain is still present after gently dabbing the area, use a Q-tip or cotton swab dampened with the cleaning solution to gently work out area.
- Do not saturate fabric - use as little liquid as possible.
- After thoroughly cleaning the area, rinse the fabric with cold water or sponge off the excess liquid.
- If the glue stain remains, repeat process with a stronger cleaning solution.
- Once stain has been removed, allow the fabric to air dry.
