Steps to Clean Rouge Stains from Raincoats
- Before attempting to remove rouge stains, check the care label on your raincoat. Some items may not allow for any cleaning solutions to be applied.
- Gently scrape off anything that is not part of the stain with a soft-bristled brush. Be careful not to spread the stain.
- Mix a solution of 1 teaspoon of dishwashing detergent in 1 cup (240 ml) of warm water. Use a mild detergent to avoid damaging the fabric.
- Dip a cloth in the solution and dab at the stained area on your raincoat. Do not rub, as this could spread the stain further.
- Continue to dab until the stain has been lifted. Do not pour the solution directly onto the fabric as this could soak into the material, worsening the problem.
- Once the stain has come out, rinse soapy solution off with cold water.
- If there is still a stain remaining, repeat these steps until it is lifted.
Tips for Preventing Rouge Stains on Raincoats
- Read the care instructions on your raincoat and follow any special instructions for cleaning and storing it.
- Keep your raincoat away from direct heat sources such as radiators or heaters.
- Place a cloth or tissue between your skin and the rouge-stained area of the raincoat to help prevent further staining.
- Be sure to replace any broken zippers or buttons on your raincoat to ensure it stays close to the body and away from areas where it could be stained.
