Remove gravy stains from ties as soon as possible. The longer it sits, the more difficult it will be to remove. Begin with a test spot on a hidden area of the garment before proceeding with instructions below.
What You Will Need
- White cloth
- Mild detergent
- Clean cloth
- Iron
Instructions
- Analyze stain to determine if it is wet or dry. If gravy is wet, blot up as much of the liquid as possible with a clean white cloth to avoid spreading the stain.
- Apply a mild detergent directly onto stain. Rub gently with your fingers until a lather forms. Rinse thoroughly.
- Blot the tie dry using a clean cloth. Allow it to air dry if possible, or use an iron set to low heat on a flat surface to finish drying.
Tips
- Always blot instead of rubbing the stain when you remove gravy.
- If the gravy is dry, use a clean cloth and brush to break up and lift the stain from the fabric.
- If the stain remains after the initial cleaning, repeat the process until it is completely gone.
