First, take a dry cloth or paper towel and gently press down on the affected area. Do not rub, just gently press and begin to blot the stain. Keep applying pressure until the majority of the liquid has been absorbed and the stain begins to lighten.
Once you have removed as much of the ketchup as possible with a dry cloth, pre-treat the stain with a gentle laundry soap specifically made for delicate fabrics. First, moisten the fabric with lukewarm water and then apply a small amount of the detergent directly onto the stain. Let this sit for a few minutes before rinsing the fabric with cold water.
The next step is to wash the fabric according to its washing instructions. Make sure to use a gentle cycle and don't forget to check the stain before placing the fabric in the dryer. If there are still traces of the stain, it is best to repeat the pre-treatment and washing steps.
If stain is still visible after washing, you may need to treat it with a specialized spot cleaner. Check ingredients of the cleaner to make sure it is suitable to use on angora fabric, and dilute the product according to instructions on the bottle. Once product has been applied, allow it to sit for a few minutes and then rinse it off.
Removing ketchup stains from angora fabric does not need to be difficult. With the above steps you can effectively remove stain and restore the fabric to its original condition. Remember to always work gently and to take care to follow the washing instructions of the fabric.
