First and foremost, you need to check the fabric tag for your abaya - this will tell you what kind of fabric it is and how you should go about cleaning it. Make sure you are using the right solutions to remove stain; you may need to refer to a specialist dry cleaner if the tag suggests professional cleaning.
If the fabric tag indicates that you can safely clean the abaya at home, start by preparing a solution of cold water and a mild detergent. Test this solution in an inconspicuous area of the abaya first to make sure it won't discolour the fabric. When you are satisfied with the results, move on to next step.
To begin cleaning, blot affected area with a clean, white cloth. Apply a small amount of the detergent solution on cloth and continue to blot the stain. Make sure not to rub the stain, as this could damage fabric. Instead, just gently blot it. If the stain has already dried on the fabric, you may want to pre-treat it with a spot-cleaning product before beginning.
Once you have blotted the stain, rinse area with more cold water. Continue to blot with a damp cloth until the stain has disappeared completely. If the stain persists, you may need to repeat the process one or two more times.
Finally, allow the abaya to dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or any other source of heat. Once it is completely dry, inspect it for any remaining traces of the stain. If the stain won't come out entirely, you may need to consult a professional dry cleaner.
Getting rid of scissors oil stains on your abaya doesn't have to be a hassle. With the right care and a few simple steps, you'll be able to remove any persistent stains in no time.
