No matter how careful we are, accidents happen. Spilling salad dressing on clothes is one of the worst, especially if it's a favorite pair of sweatpants. But, while it might seem like a daunting task to clean up the mess, don't worry – with the right approach and materials, it is possible to get your sweatpants looking like new. Here are five steps for removing salad dressing stains from sweatpants.

  1. Remove Excess Dressing
    As soon as you notice a salad dressing stain on your sweatpants, scoop up or dab off any excess dressing with a paper towel.
  2. Create a Cleaning Solution
    Mix together 1 teaspoon of liquid laundry detergent, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, and 2 cups of warm water. Use an old toothbrush to create a paste by adding some of the cleaning solution and mixing it into a tablespoon of baking soda.
  3. Scrub Spot Gently
    Using toothbrush, gently rub the cleaning solution and baking soda paste onto stained area. Repeat several times until the stain is gone.
  4. Remove Cleaning Solutions and Paste
    Soak a cloth in cold water and then use it to remove all of the cleaning solution and paste that is left on the sweatpants.
  5. Launder
    Toss the pants in the washing machine to remove the final traces of the stain. Use mild detergent when doing so.

By following these steps, you will be able to easily remove a salad dressing stain from your favorite sweatpants. Of course, it’s always best to act fast when dealing with any kind of stain - the longer you delay, the harder it will be to remove the stain completely.
