1. Blotting
First, try blotting up as much of the excess ketchup as possible off the watch with a damp cloth or paper towel. If you can't reach all the areas, use the corner of the cloth to carefully dab the ketchup away from the watch.
2. Soapy Water
Soak a cloth in warm soapy water and wring it out until the cloth is just damp. Use the cloth to gently rub the stained area of the watch. Make sure to not apply too much pressure—you don't want to damage the delicate material of the watch! Rinse the cloth occasionally so that you are using clean water on the watch.
3. Vinegar
If the ketchup stain doesn't come off with soap and water, you can try using vinegar. Dilute white vinegar in equal parts of water and use a cloth to rub the area. Do not leave the vinegar mixture on the watch for too long—just a few minutes should do. Wipe off the vinegar with a damp cloth and then rinse the area with water.
4. Alcohol
Another option is to try rubbing alcohol on the stain. Make sure to dilute the alcohol first with an equal part of water. Use a cloth to rub the area, then rinse off with water to remove the residue.
5. Baking Soda and Lemon Juice
If all else fails, you can try using baking soda and lemon juice. Mix equal parts of baking soda and lemon juice into a paste and apply to the stain. Let the paste sit for a few minutes and then use a damp cloth to rub area. Rinse off with water when you're done.
Conclusion
Ketchup stains may seem like a daunting task to take on, but with the right techniques you can remove them from your watch with ease. Give some of these methods a try and see which works best for your watch.
