Things You Will Need
- Soybean oil or petroleum jelly
- White vinegar
- Soft cloths
- Spoon
Instructions
- As soon as you notice the paint stain, use a spoon to scrape away as much of the paint as possible. Be sure not to rub or smudge the paint, as this will cause the stain to spread further.
- Apply some soybean oil or petroleum jelly to the stained area. Allow the oil or jelly to sit for a few minutes. This will help break down paint, making it easier to remove.
- Using a soft cloth, gently rub the stain in circular motions to remove as much paint as possible.
- If the stain persists, try using a mixture of white vinegar and water. Soak a cloth in mixture and blot the stained area until paint has been removed.
- Rinse the area with cold water and then allow it to air dry.
Additional Tips and Advice
- Be sure to only use a mild detergent when washing the garment. Harsh chemicals can damage the delicate silk fibers.
- Always test a small hidden area of the fabric before applying any cleaning method. This will ensure you don't cause any additional damage.
- If stain is particularly stubborn, it's best to take the garment to a professional cleaner to avoid any further damage.
