Things You’ll Need

- White vinegar
- Mild detergent
Let’s Get Started
The process of removing ink stains from mohair begins with treating the fabric with a fine-grit sandpaper. This will help to lift some of the ink particles from surface, making them easier to remove.
If you don’t have sandpaper, you can use a soft-bristled scrubbing brush instead. Just make sure not to rub too hard, as this might damage the fabric.
Once you’ve done this step, combine equal parts of liquid dish soap and warm water in a bowl and stir until they form a thick foam. Dip your scrub brush into the foam and begin scrubbing stained area, taking care not to rub too hard.
You should see the stain beginning to disappear. If it doesn’t, or if the stain is particularly stubborn, add a teaspoon of white vinegar to your soapy mixture and give stained area another scrub.
Once the stain has been removed, rinse the area with warm water and gently blot it dry with a cloth. Finally, wash the area with a mild detergent and allow it to air dry.
