Silk faille is a delicate fabric that requires special care when it comes to laundry. When you’re dealing with silks, the key is to be gentle, using non-abrasive cleaners and low heat. That’s especially true when dealing with medicine stains, which can be stubborn and difficult to remove.
What You’ll Need
- Non-bleach detergent
- White vinegar
- Cotton swabs
- Clean white cloth or paper towels
Step One: Pre-Treat Stain
First, make sure the fabric is damp, not sopping wet. Mix two parts white vinegar with one part warm water and use a cotton swab to apply mixture to the stain. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before blotting gently with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Step Two: Wash Fabric
After pre-treating the stain on your silk faille, wash according to fabric’s instructions. Use a non-bleach detergent such as EverydayOxford Laundry Detergent and wash in cold water on a delicate cycle. Do not dry with heat.
Step Three: Inspect the Fabric
Once the fabric is dry, inspect it closely. If the stain is still visible, repeat steps one and two, making sure the stain is fully saturated with the pre-treatment solution. If the stain persists after repeating process twice, consider taking the fabric to a professional cleaner.
