First off, use a vacuum cleaner to suck away surface dirt and dust from the Dobby fabric. This will help lift up some of the pencil remains and make it easier to clean off once you move to other cleaning methods.
Once you have used the vacuum cleaner, take a damp cloth or sponge and gently dab away at the pencil stains. This should help to lighten stain and fade away the pencil marks significantly. If the stain still remains, repeat this step.
If dabbing the cloth or sponge doesn't do the trick, try using a mild detergent mixed with warm water. Apply this detergent solution on the pencil stain and softly scrub away the stain using a soft brush or a scrubber. Once done, rinse off the detergent solution with cold water.
If the stain still remains, then you can try using more powerful cleaning solutions such as bleaches, enzyme cleaners, and other similar products. These should be able to get rid of the stain completely. However, before using any of these cleaning solutions, it is important to check label and make sure that they are not damaging to the fabric of the Dobby.
To prevent pencil stains from Dobby fabrics in the future, it is important to take some preventative measures. always keep your pencils sharpened and place them in a safe place instead of leaving them lying around. Additionally, when using a fabric marker, always use a small piece of cardboard to place between fabric and the marker to ensure nothing is transferred onto the fabric.
