Method 1: Make a Paste

The first method for getting pet stains out of cotton gingham is to make a paste. Take a tablespoon of mild laundry detergent and mix it with one teaspoon of baking soda until it forms a paste. Use a soft cloth to rub the paste onto the stain, and let it sit for about an hour. Then, rinse the area with cold water.

Method 2: Spot-Clean with Vinegar

Another great method for getting pet stains out of cotton gingham is spot-cleaning with vinegar. Take a soft cloth and dip it in a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Gently dab the stain with the cloth until the stain is gone. Once you’ve removed the stain, rinse the area with cold water.

Method 3: Use a Stain Remover

You can also remove pet stains from cotton gingham with a specialized stain remover. Dab a bit of the stain remover onto the cloth, then gently dab at the stain. Be sure to follow the instructions on bottle for proper use. After the stain has been removed, rinse the area with cold water.

Tips

  • Always read and follow the instructions on any cleaning product before using it.
  • Be sure to test any method on a hidden part of the fabric before using it on the stain.
  • If a stain is still present, try repeating the method or try one of other methods.
