What You'll Need:
- White vinegar
- Borax powder
- Water
- White cloth
- Clothes brush
Step 1: Blot the Stain
Gently blot the stain with a white cloth to remove as much liquid as possible. Don’t rub the fabric as this may spread the stain and set it into the fabric.
Step 2: Make a Paste
Mix vinegar and borax powder together in equal parts with a few drops of water to form a paste. Apply paste directly to the stain and leave it to soak for a few minutes, allowing it time to break down stain.
Step 3: Brush Away the Stain
Using a clothes brush, gently scrub at the stain until it lifts. Depending on size of the stain you may need to apply a little extra pressure to get the stain out.
Step 4: Rinse
Run water over the stained area and use a white cloth to blot it away. Ensure that all of paste is removed and repeat the process until the stain is gone.
Final Thoughts
Having to deal with a pet stain on an evening gown doesn't have to be a hassle. With the right supplies and know-how, cleaning up a pet stain can be an easy process.
