Stains are an inevitable part of life, and spills can happen quickly and without warning. It's nearly impossible to keep your favourite tartan fabric free of all spills, but with a few simple steps you can quickly and effectively remove soy sauce stains from tartan fabric.
The first step in removing soy sauce stains is to blot stain with a clean cloth or paper towel. Do not rub the spill or you may spread the soy sauce further into the fabric. Instead, dip cloth into cold water, then gently press water into the stain. This will help to dilute the soy sauce and remove excess liquid.
Once the area has been blotted, you can begin to use soap to remove the stain. The best kind of soap to use for soy sauce stains is a laundry detergent that contains an enzyme cleaner. This type of cleaner will break down the proteins in soy sauce and help to lift the stain from the fabric.
Create a mixture of one part dish soap and two parts cold water. Then, using a cloth or sponge, gently rub the solution into stain using circular motions. Be sure to avoid rubbing too hard to prevent the stain from spreading. Keep adding the solution until the stain is completely removed.
After the stain has been removed, rinse the area with cold water. This will help to remove any remaining soap residue and help to set the fabric. For added stain protection, mix together equal parts white vinegar and cold water. Dip a cloth into the solution, then use it to rinse the stained area. Let the fabric air dry before wearing it again.
By following these easy steps, you'll be able to quickly and easily remove soy sauce stains from your tartan fabric.
