When it comes to spills and stains, ketchup can be one of the most stubborn. The combination of oil, dye, and sugar can make it difficult to remove without the right tools and techniques.
When dealing with tussah fabric, it is important to note that tussah is a particularly delicate fabric. For best results, hand washing is recommended rather than machine washing.
What You Will Need

Instructions:
- Put on gloves and pour a small amount of white vinegar into a small bowl or container.

- Once the stain has been removed, rinse the area with clean water and then pat it dry with a soft cloth or towel.
