Instructions for Removing Grease Spills

  1. Remove any excess gravy from the fabric surface with blotting paper or a white cloth. Do not scrub or rub as this will spread the stain.
  2. Dab the affected area with a Q-tip soaked in laundry detergent. Do not rub.
  3. For dried gravy spots, use a soft-bristle brush to loosen up stain before you continue with the cleaning process.
  4. Using a damp sponge, dab and lightly rub the stain. Move the sponge in circular motions, using a fraction of pressure you would normally apply.
  5. Once you’ve dealt with most of stain, rinse the area with cold water and blot dry.
  6. If there is still some discoloration visible, try using a hairdryer or an iron on a low setting to heat the fabric and remove remaining grease.

Cleaning Aftercare

It's important to keep your fabric clean after removing the stain, especially when dealing with silk noil. To help prevent future stains, use a fabric protector or an anti-stain product after cleaning. This will help repel dirt and grease, making it easier for you to tackle any spills in the future.
