If you happen to notice a soy sauce stain right away, try to act quickly! One of the first steps to take is to soak the affected area in cold water to help contain the stain and prevent it from spreading deeper into the fibers of material. If possible, let it soak overnight before moving onto the next step.
Mix a small amount of detergent (or even laundry soap) with some cold water and use a clean cloth to dab and blot the stained areas. Be sure not to rub as that could potentially spread the stain further. Let the detergent sit on stain for about 10-15 minutes before cleaning it with cold water.
Using a specialized stain removing solution specifically designed for soy sauce (or other protein-based stains), apply the formula directly to the stain using the instructions written on the label. Then, rinse the area with cold water and let it air dry.
Once the garment is dried, have a look to make sure that the soy sauce stain is no longer visible. If it still looks present, you may need to repeat steps 2 and 3 or try a different stain removal product.
With the right approach and cleaning supplies, getting rid of soy sauce stains on workwear doesn't have to be a daunting endeavor. Just follow these simple steps and you should have your workwear looking good as new in no time!
