Tar is a petroleum-based product that can be hard to remove completely from clothing or fabrics, like silk gazar. However, it's not impossible to remove tar stains from this delicate fabric if you take the necessary steps. Here's how to do it:
- Start by scraping off any excess tar from the fabric. Use a plastic spoon or other flat surface to gently scrape away at the tar without damaging the fabric.
- Next, apply a few drops of dishwashing detergent onto the stain. Allow the detergent to soak into fabric for 10-15 minutes. This will help to loosen up stain.
- After soaking, use a soft-bristled brush to lightly scrub the stain in circular motions. Rinse with warm water and then repeat until stain is removed.
- For tough stains that don't come out with the above methods, try using a dry-cleaning solvent. Test the solvent on a small hidden area of the fabric first to make sure it doesn't cause discoloration. If it does not, apply the solvent to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes before washing it off.
- Finally, wash the fabric in the washer as usual. Hang the fabric to air dry.
Cleaning tar stains from silk gazar can be tricky, but with these steps you don't have to worry about ruining the fabric in process. With a bit of time and patience, tar stains can be removed without any permanent damage.
