When red wine accidentally spills on a chico, it can leave behind an unsightly stain that won’t come out in the wash. But there are some simple methods for removing red wine stains from your chico. Here’s what you need to do:
The first step is to get all of the excess liquid off of chico. To do this, simply take a clean cloth and blot the stained area. Do not rub, as this could spread the stain even further. Continue blotting until no more liquid is coming off.
Once you have blotted as much of the liquid off as you can, you’ll want to rinse the fabric with cold water. This will help to dilute the stain and make it easier to remove. To do this, hold the stained area under the tap, and gently run cold water over it. Then, use the cloth to blot the moisture away.
Now, you’ll need to create a cleaning solution. The best way to do this is to mix equal parts white vinegar and lukewarm water. Once the solution is ready, dip cloth into it, and then use it to blot the stained area. This should help to loosen and lighten stain.
Once you’ve blotted the stain with the vinegar solution, you’ll want to give the chico a full wash. Be sure to use a mild detergent, such as a laundry soap, so as not to damage the material. After washing, hang chico in a dry place and let it air dry.
Depending on how stubborn the stain is, you may need to repeat all or some of the steps outlined above. Don’t worry, it is possible to get red wine stains out of chicos. Just keep at it, and you’ll eventually succeed.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
