First things first, make sure you don't wipe the stains away. This will only spread the ketchup further and make the stain worse. Use a paper towel or a piece of cloth and gently blot the stains to absorb as much of the sauce as possible.
Mix together a solution of one part mild detergent and one part cold water. Put the mixture into a spray bottle and shake it up so that it's combined well.
Spray mixed solution onto the ketchup stained area of the Adidas. Let it sit on the fabric for approximately 10 minutes without rubbing it in.
Gently rub areas of the stain with a soft bristled brush. This should help lift the stain from the fabric. Make sure to not scrub too hard as it can damage material.
Once the stain has been removed, rinse off the area with cold water. Pat the fabric dry with a clean towel and let the fabric air dry before using it again.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
