Oil stains on a parka happen more often than you might think, especially if you accidentally come into contact with scissors oil. Fortunately, with some patience and a few simple steps, you can remove these unwanted spots with ease.
Before you begin the process of cleaning the stain itself, take a moment to remove as much of the excess oil as you can. Using a paper towel or cloth, gently blot the affected area to get rid of any extra residue.
Once you have blotted as much of the oil away, create a mixture of warm water and detergent. Put a generous amount of solution onto the stain, then start rubbing it in with a cloth or soft toothbrush. Make sure you are being gentle, as you don't want to cause any damage to the fabric.
After you have worked the detergent into the stain, make sure to rinse off any reside with cold water. If necessary, repeat the process a few times until you feel the stain has been completely removed.
Finally, once you are satisfied that the stain is gone, take parka outside and lay it on some towels. Leave it out for a few hours until it is completely dry, then admire your workmanship!
