What You'll Need

  • Dish soap
  • Cleaning sponge
  • Vinegar
  • Bucket
  • Hair dryer

Step 1: Preparing the Garter

Before you get started, you should prepare the garter by soaking it in a solution of warm water and dish soap. Let the garter soak for at least 5-10 minutes before removing it and letting it air dry.

Step 2: Scrubbing the Stain

Once the garter is dry, you can begin to scrub the stain with a cleaning sponge and some vinegar. Work in small, circular motions to dissolve the tar. If the tar is particularly stubborn, let the vinegar sit on the affected area for 5-10 minutes before scrubbing.

Step 3: Rinse and Dry

Once you've finished scrubbing, rinse the garter off and then hang it to air dry. If stain is still there, you can use a hair dryer to heat the area, which will loosen up the tar and make it easier to clean. Be careful not to overheat the garter, as this could damage it.

Step 4: Repeat as Necessary

If the tar stain is still present after following above steps, repeat the process until it is completely removed. If you find that stain is still stubborn, you may want to consider using a commercial tar remover, which can be purchased at most hardware stores.

Conclusion

Tar stains can be a pain to remove, but with the right tools and technique, you can easily get rid of those unsightly spots. By following the steps outlined above, you can quickly and easily clean tar stains from your garter.
