Step 1: Create a Paste with Baking Soda and Vinegar

Step 2: Apply the Paste to Stain
Using a soft-bristled brush, apply the paste to the stain. Allow paste to sit for 15 minutes. If necessary, you can sprinkle a few drops of water on the paste to keep it moist.
Step 3: Scrub the Stain with a Toothbrush
After letting the paste sit for 15 minutes, use an old toothbrush to scrub the stain in a circular motion. Be careful not to scrub too hard, as this can damage the fabric of the jacket.
Step 4: Rinse the Jacket
Once stain has been removed, rinse the area with cool water. Dry the jacket with a clean towel.
