Ketchup stains may seem like they will never come out, but don't panic - there are some practical steps you can take to make sure your cashmere stays looking its best. Here's how:
- Immediately blot the ketchup stain with a damp cloth or paper towel.
- Mix a solution of warm water and laundry detergent, and gently scrub stained area with a soft brush.
- Rinse the fabric and then sponge it with white vinegar.
- Let the fabric air dry, then check for any remaining residue and repeat if necessary.
When using this method, make sure to use a mild detergent and vinegar, as harsh chemicals can damage the delicate fibers of cashmere. If you’re still unsure, it’s always best to test the solution in an unseen area of garment first. Additionally, if the stain is particularly stubborn, you may need to repeat these steps several times before ketchup is fully removed.
After the stain has been removed, make sure to launder garment according to its label instructions. This will help keep the cashmere looking and feeling its best. With the proper care, you can keep your cashmere looking great and ketchup stains at bay.
