Step 1: Spot Tests
Before you begin, it’s important to find out which method is going to work best for your stain. To do this, you must conduct a spot test. Start by applying some of methods outlined below to a discreet area of the garment, such as the inside of a sleeve. Wait for it to dry before checking the results. If it looks clean, you can proceed with using same method on the larger stain.
Step 2: Vinegar Solution
Vinegar is a great and easy way to get rid of mouthwash stains from your suit. Firstly, mix one part white vinegar with two parts water. Then, use a soft cloth to dab the vinegar solution onto the stain. Make sure that you don’t rub or scrub the stain as this could damage fabric. Finally, rinse off the vinegar solution with cold water and let it air dry.
Step 3: Alcohol Mixture
If the vinegar solution doesn’t fully remove the mouthwash stains, you can try a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water. To create mixture, mix equal parts rubbing alcohol and water in a bowl. Next, dip a cloth into mixture and use it to dab stain. Don’t forget to spot test first! Once you’ve let the stained area dry, rinse it off with cold water.
Step 4: Laundry Detergent
Laundry detergent is another great way to treat a mouthwash stain. Start by creating a mixture of laundry detergent and cold water. However, make sure that the detergent is delicate and meant for hand-washing. Then, dab the stain with the mixture, but remember not to rub it in as this could damage the fabric. Leave the detergent to set for 10 minutes, then rinse it off with cold water. Let the garment air dry.
Conclusion
As you can see, there are many ways to get rid of pesky mouthwash stains from suits. As long as you spot test beforehand and use your chosen method carefully, you’ll be able to restore your suit to its former glory in no time at all.
