Accidents are bound to happen, and one of the most common culprits? Soy sauce. If your favorite one-piece swimsuit has fallen victim to a soy sauce spill, there's no need to panic—it's actually pretty easy to get rid of, and only requires a few items from around your home.

What You'll Need:

  • A sink or bowl
  • Baking soda
  • White vinegar
  • Paper towels
  • Laundry detergent
  • Cold water

Instructions:

  1. Start by filling your sink or bowl with cold water.
  2. Mix in 2 tablespoons of baking soda.
  3. Submerge your one-piece swimsuit in the mixture and let it soak for 20 minutes.
  4. Once 20 minutes is up, take the swimsuit out and lay it on a paper towel.
  5. Gently dab the stain with a damp paper towel and some white vinegar.
  6. Let it air-dry.
  7. Once it's dry, put the swimsuit in your washing machine with a mild laundry detergent.
  8. Wash the swimsuit on a gentle cycle with cold water and then hang to dry.

Tips for Success:

  • Always use cold water to prevent soy sauce stain from setting into the fabric.
  • Scrub gently with the paper towel or else you may do further damage to the fabric.
  • Make sure the swimsuit is completely dry before putting it in the washer – running it through a drying cycle can cause more harm than good.
