Method 1: Blotting with a Paper Towel

The first step in removing tomato sauce stains from dobby cloths is to blot stained area with a paper towel or clean cloth. This will help remove any excess tomato sauce that is sitting on the surface of the fabric. Be sure to use light pressure and start from the outside of stain and work your way in.

Method 2: Soaking in Warm Water and Dish Soap

After you've blotted stain with a paper towel, you can try soaking the stained fabric in warm water and dish soap for about 30 minutes. After the fabric has soaked, rinse out the soap and then launder as normal. Make sure to check stain before drying, as heat can sometimes set the stain.

Method 3: Spraying with Vinegar Solution

If the stain is still visible after soaking and laundering, you can try spraying area with a vinegar solution. Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle and spray the stained area until it is saturated. Let the vinegar solution sit for a few minutes and then rinse with cold water and launder as usual.

Method 4: Treating with a Pre-Wash Stain Remover

If all else fails, try treating the stain with a pre-wash stain remover. Follow the instructions on package for application and let the stain remover sit for about 10 minutes before laundering. As with any other cleaning method, always check the stain before drying to make sure that it is completely gone.

Method 5: Using Hairspray

Believe it or not, hairspray can be used to remove tomato sauce stains from Dobby cloths. Spray the stained area generously with hairspray and let it sit for about 10 minutes before laundering. Be sure to check the stain before drying, as heat can sometimes set the stain.
