What You Need to Clean the Ketchup Stains

To clean your ketchup-stained skirt, you’ll need following materials:

  • Dishwashing liquid
  • Mild laundry detergent
  • White vinegar
  • Scrub brush or cloth
  • Laundry stain remover

Steps to Remove Ketchup Stains from Skirts

  1. Manually remove as much ketchup as possible from the skirt. This includes carefully scraping off any dried ketchup with a knife or spoon.
  2. Create a cleaning solution by mixing two teaspoons of dishwashing liquid, one teaspoon of mild laundry detergent, and one cup of white vinegar.
  3. Ease the cleaning solution onto ketchup-stained clothing (the skirt) and let it sit for about 10 minutes.
  4. Rinse the skirt with warm water.
  5. If there are still stains remaining on the skirt, sprinkle laundry stain remover onto the area and rub the affected area with a scrub brush or cloth. Rinse the skirt again with warm water.
  6. Repeat Steps 3 to 5 if necessary.
  7. Let skirt air dry.
