Things You'll Need
- White vinegar
- Rag or sponge
- Laundry detergent
- Salt
- Cold water
Steps to Follow
- As soon as the mayonnaise has been spilt on your garment, scoop out the excess with a spoon or rag.
- Next, take a rag and add some white vinegar to it. Then gently dab the stain with rag and let the vinegar set in for 5 minutes or so.
- Use a mild soap and rinse the stained area with cold water. Rinse area until stain fully fades away.
- In case the stubborn stain still remains, then sprinkle some salt over the stain and leave it for half an hour.
- After 30 minutes, brush off the salt and apply a fabric stain remover, following the instructions on the label. Let it set for 15 minutes.
- Finally, rinse the fabric with cold water and wash it in a washing machine with the same color clothes.
Additional Tips
- Always try to treat the stain as soon as possible. The longer stain sits, the harder it will be to remove it.
- Use a soft bristled brush to scrub the stain away as it won't damage delicate wool fabric.
- Make sure you use a wool-friendly laundry detergent to avoid any fabric damage.
- Always wash the stained cloth separately from the other laundry.
- Do not dry the cloth in a dryer. Air-dry it instead.
