Blot the Stain Immediately
The first step in cleaning a gravy stain from overalls is to blot the stain immediately. Avoid scrubbing the stain, as this can cause it to spread. For best results, use a white cloth or a piece of white kitchen paper. Gently press cloth or paper onto stain until the sauce stops transferring to the cloth. Repeat process until the gravy has been completely blotted from the overalls.
Soak the Overall in Warm Water
Once you've finished blotting stain, you need to soak the overall in warm water. Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and submerge the overall completely. You may want to add a gentle detergent such as Woolite or a delicate fabric cleaner into water. Let the overall sit for at least 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly under cold water.
Apply a Stain Remover
If the stain is still present after soaking the overall in water, you can try applying a stain remover. Look for a product specifically formulated for removing grease or oil-based stains. Read instructions and apply the stain remover according to the directions. After stain remover has been applied, rinse again under cold water.
Machine Wash the Overall
Once you've removed stain, you can machine wash the overall. Use a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. Don't forget to read and follow all care instructions, so you can be sure to keep your overalls looking great.
Final Thoughts
Don't despair if you end up with a gravy stain on your overalls. With the right approach, you can easily get rid of those pesky stains and have your overalls looking good as new in no time.
