To remove hairspray stains from cotton oxford fabric, start by blotting away as much of the excess hairspray as possible with a dry cloth. Try not to rub the area, as this can spread the stain further, and be sure to use a colorfast cloth so that you don’t risk discoloration.

Next, mix a mild detergent such as a liquid soap or dishwashing liquid with some warm water and gently dab the mixture onto stain, being careful not to rub it in. Let the solution sit for about 10 minutes before blotting the area with a clean cloth.

If the stain is still there, you may need to apply a spot cleaning product designed for type of fabric in question. Spot cleaners come in many forms, including powder, cream, or aerosol sprays. Follow the instructions on the package for best results.

Once the spot cleaner has been applied, allow it to set according to the instructions on the package. Once again, blot the area with a dry cloth to remove any residue. If the stain is still there, repeat the process until it is gone.

Finally, launder the garment as you normally would, being sure to check the stain before drying the fabric; heat can permanently set the stain. If the stain is still present, repeat the spot cleaning process until it is completely gone before drying again.

By following these simple steps, you can easily remove hairspray stains from cotton oxford fabric. With a few items you might have around the house and a bit of patience, you’ll have your clothing looking fresh and new in no time.
