You should start by using paper towels to blot up as much of the gravy as possible. This will help keep it from running onto other parts of the fabric.
Next, pour some dishwashing liquid directly onto the stain. Rub it in gently with your fingers until the entire area is coated. Leave it to sit for five to ten minutes.
Once you've let the detergent sit, rinse off the stained area with cold water. Then, repeat steps two and three until all traces of the stain have been removed.
After rinsing, spray a bit of water directly on the stain, then use a cotton swab to blot up the excess moisture. This will help to further remove any remaining residue.
Finally, hang the shirt outside to air dry. Once it's completely dry, wash it as usual in the washing machine according to the fabric's care instructions. Check one more time for any lingering stains before drying in the dryer.
Getting rid of gravy stains from a shirt doesn't have to be a nightmare. By following these simple steps, you can easily and swiftly remove those pesky splotches and restore your shirt back to its original condition.
