Mayonnaise is a popular condiment for sandwiches, burgers, and other dishes, but it can be challenging to deal with when it spills on your outerwear. If you're in a pinch, there are several methods you can use to get rid of those pesky mayonnaise stains.

Removing Mayonnaise Stains from Outerwear

Step 1: Blot stain as soon as possible. Use a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towel to gently blot the mayonnaise stain. This will absorb some of oil in the mayonnaise, which will make it easier to remove.

Step 2: Create a cleaning solution. Mix one tablespoon of liquid laundry detergent with two cups of warm water. You can also add a few drops of white vinegar to mixture if desired.

Step 3: Dip a clean cloth into the solution and lightly dab the mayonnaise stain. Don't scrub the fabric. Continue this process until the stain is gone.

Step 4: Rinse the area with cold water and blot dry with a clean cloth. Once the area is completely dry, turn the outerwear inside out and machine wash using cold water and a mild detergent.

Tips for Removing Mayonnaise Stains

  • Try to act quickly when removing mayonnaise stains – the sooner you act, the easier it will be to remove the stain.
  • Avoid using hot water or harsh chemicals, as they can set the stain and make it harder to remove.
  • Always check manufacturer's care instructions before attempting to remove a stain from your outerwear.
