What You Will Need
- White vinegar
- A dry cloth
- Detergent solution
Instructions
- Pre-treat the red wine stain by blotting it with a dry cloth. Make sure to dab gently, rather than rubbing, so you don't spread the stain.
- Create a mixture of one part white vinegar and one part water and pour it onto the stain. Allow it to sit for a few minutes.
- Take a clean, dry cloth and dab affected area. Do not rub. Repeat this process until the stain has been removed.
- If the stain is still present, take a clean cloth and dip it into a detergent solution. Blot the stain lightly with the cloth.
- Once again, use a clean, dry cloth to dab the affected area.
- Allow the wallet to air dry before use.
Tips
- Do not attempt to wash your wallet in a washing machine or dishwasher, as this may damage the wallet.
- Be sure to act quickly when dealing with red wine stains on your wallet. The longer the stain is allowed to sit, the more difficult it will be to remove.
