To start, you'll need some supplies. You'll need a cloth (or several if needed), a soft-bristled brush, a mild detergent, white vinegar, and cold water. Now, let's get started.
Using a dampened cloth, gently wet the stained area. Be sure not to soak the fabric, as this could cause the fabric to shrink or become discolored. Instead, just dampen stained area.
Once the area is dampened, apply some mild detergent on the stained area. Let it sit for a few minutes before lightly brushing the stain with a soft-bristled brush. Be sure to use light strokes and avoid vigorous scrubbing, which could damage the fabric.
After brushing the detergent, rinse the area with cold water. If the stain still persists, repeat steps 1-3 until stain is removed. Alternatively, you can also mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a bowl and use this solution for rinsing the stain.
Once the stain is removed, hang fabric up to air dry. Avoid using a dryer, as this could cause the fabric to shrink.
With these simple steps, you can quickly and easily get rid of pencil stains from your cotton chambray fabric. Just remember to always use the gentlest methods possible, as vigorous scrubbing could cause permanent damage.
