Before you tackle ink stains on your tartan fabric, make sure you have the following items ready:
Start by dabbing stained area of fabric with a clean, dry cloth. This will help absorb some of the excess ink. Do not rub it in — that will just spread the stain further.
Pour some rubbing alcohol onto a dry cleaning sponge and gently dab it onto the stained area. Be sure to use a clean section of the sponge for each dab. Continue until the stain starts to fade away.
Mix together a 10 percent hydrogen peroxide solution and pour it onto a paper towel. Gently dab the affected area with the solution. You may need to repeat this step a few times for stubborn stains. Once stain is gone, rinse the fabric with cold water.
If there is any remaining residue, mix together equal parts vinegar and water and apply it to a clean cloth. Gently dab the stained area with the damp cloth. Rinse the fabric with cold water when the stain is gone.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
