Gravy can make for a delicious addition to any meal. Unfortunately, it can also be one of the most difficult stains to clean away. Whether you’re dealing with a fresh or dried stain, here are some steps to take in order to salvage your jacket.

Step 1: Blot the Stain

The first step to cleaning a gravy stain is blotting the affected area with a paper towel or cloth. You want to pick up as much of the liquid as possible before proceeding with further cleaning measures.

Step 2: Apply a Cleaning Solution

Once you have blotted as much of the liquid as possible, you will need to apply a cleaning solution to the stain. Make sure to use a mild detergent or stain remover and add a small amount of water to create a light sudsy mixture. Apply this mixture to the stain using a clean cloth or sponge.

If the stain is greasy or oily, you can try applying white vinegar to the area. This can help to break down the fat particles and remove the grease from the fabric.

Step 3: Rinse and Launder

To finish the stain removal process, you will want to rinse the area with warm water. Once this is done, you can launder the garment in hot water with a regular detergent. Before placing the jacket in dryer, check the stained area to ensure that stain is gone.
