The key to getting rid of any stain is acting quickly. The longer a stain sits, the harder it is to remove. So don’t wait to begin cleaning the tomato sauce.
If you have a cloth napkin or handkerchief handy, use it to blot away any excess sauce. Don't rub it in or you could make stain worse.
Mix non-bleach laundry detergent with warm water to create a sudsy paste. Gently rub it into stain using a soft brush or sponge. Leave it for 10 minutes before rinsing with cold water.
Create a cleaning solution by mixing equal parts white vinegar and baking soda with a few tablespoons of warm water. Rub it into the stain with a soft brush and leave it for a few minutes before rinsing with cold water.
Once the stain has faded, it’s time to launder your pants as usual. Be sure to check back of your detergent bottle to ensure it matches the care instructions for your pants. If possible, use a color-safe bleach for added protection.
Cleaning tomato sauce stains from your pants doesn't have to be a challenge. With just a few simple steps, you can restore your clothes and have them looking new again. So the next time you spill that marinara sauce, you’ll know what to do.
