While removing mayonnaise spots from macramé can be tricky, there are steps you can take to make the task easier. Read on for tips on how to tackle those tough mayonnaise stains on your macramé!
The best way to tackle mayonnaise stains on macramé is to start by removing as much of the excess off with a clean cloth. Blot the stained area gently to avoid rubbing the mayonnaise deeper into the fabric. Remember not to rub in a circular motion or use too much pressure as this can cause the stain to spread.
Mix a drop of mild detergent with water to form a paste-like consistency. Apply the paste on the stained area and allow it to sit for about 30 minutes. Gently scrape off the paste and then rinse the area with cold water.
If stains remain, you can try soaking the macramé in a solution of Vanish Napisan and warm water. Follow the instructions on the product label as it varies according to type of fabric. Once done, rinse off the macramé with cold water and check if the stains have been removed. If not, repeat the process again before drying fabric.
If all else fails, you can try using laundry shampoo on the stained area. Apply a generous amount of shampoo directly to the stain and work it into a lather. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes before rinsing it off. After rinsing, launder macramé as usual and hang it out to dry.
By following the steps above, you will be able to quickly and effectively remove mayonnaise stains from your macramé. With a little bit of knowledge and the right products, you can tackle those tough stains with ease!
