The first step in effectively removing paint from Angora is to identify the type of paint that stained it. This is an important factor in determining appropriate solution for your stain removal needs. Water-based paints and oil-based paints may need different cleaning methods.
Once you’ve identified the type of paint, it’s time to create a cleaning solution for stain. For tough water-based paint stains, mix a cup of white vinegar with two cups of warm, soapy water. For oil-based paint stains, mix together one teaspoon of liquid detergent and one teaspoon of white vinegar with two cups of warm water.
Before you start cleaning your Angora fabric, you should test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area of the fabric. This will ensure that the solution does not damage or discolor fabric. If test area is successful, proceed with the cleaning process.
Once you’ve tested the solution, it’s time to soak up paint stain. Use a cotton swab or cloth to apply cleaning solution directly onto stain. Allow the solution to sit on the stain for 10 minutes, then take a clean cloth and blot the area. Repeat this process until the stain has been absorbed.
Once you’ve soaked up the paint stain, it’s time to rinse the area. Use a damp cloth to remove any remaining residue from the fabric. Rinse area until all of the cleaning solution has been removed.
Finally, allow Angora fabric to air dry completely. Do not put the fabric in the dryer as the heat may cause the stain to set permanently. Once the fabric is completely dry, inspect the area to ensure all of the paint has been removed.
