What should I do if the stain doesn't come off?

If the stain isn't coming off after repeating steps 1 to 3, you can try pre-treating the stain with a commercial stain remover. Allow the stain remover to sit on the fleece for 10 minutes before rinsing off with cold water. A professional dry cleaning service may be needed if the stain still remains.

Can I put the fleece in the washing machine?

Yes, you can safely put the fleece in the washing machine as long as you use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid drying the clothing in a machine dryer as this could set in the stain and make it permanent.

Step 1: Soak the Stain

The first step is to take your soft cloth and soak it in cold water. Gently rub the stained area of the fleece with damp cloth. This will help to remove traces of the mouthwash and loosen up any residue.

Step 2: Apply Detergent and Vinegar

Take a few drops of liquid detergent and mix with white vinegar in a bowl. Create a paste-like substance and gently apply onto the stain. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes before proceeding to step 3.

Step 3: Rinse and Dry
