Step 1: Blotting the Stain

The first step in removing mayonnaise from mules is to gently blot the area with a soft cloth or paper towel. This should help to absorb some of the oil, and prevent it from sinking further into the fabric.

Step 2: Soak the Stained Area

The next step is to soak the stained area in cool water for about 10 minutes. During this time, you can add a small amount of laundry detergent to the water to help lift the stain.

Step 3: Clean the Stain

Once you’ve soaked the area, take a clean cloth and use a circular motion with a moderate amount of pressure to rub stain away. You may need to repeat this process several times before the stain is completely gone.

Step 4: Air-Dry the Mules

When you’ve removed the stain, last step is to air-dry them. Hang them over a clothesline or lay them flat on a towel. Do not put them in the dryer, as the heat could set in the stain.
