Before doing anything else, take a sponge or soft cloth and gently blot the stain. This will ensure that you don’t make the stain worse or spread it to other areas of the coat.
Mix together one teaspoon of baking soda and one teaspoon of white vinegar. This combination should create a paste-like consistency. Then, apply the paste to the stain and use a sponge or cloth to scrub it in circles.
Mix together one teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of lemon juice. Use a spoon to stir mixture well. Then, apply the solution to stain and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
Once you’ve let the salt and lemon juice solution sit, rinse it off gently with cold water. Then, set the washing machine to the gentle cycle and add in a mild detergent. Place the coat inside and wash according to the instructions provided.
After washing the coat, hang it up to air dry. Once it’s completely dry, inspect the area to check if stain is gone. If not, you can repeat steps one through four as needed.
