What You’ll Need

  • Dish soap
  • A soft bristled brush
  • Cleaning cloths
  • Hydrogen peroxide
  • White vinegar
  • Baking soda

Step 1: Creating a Soap and Water Solution

The first step in removing a tomato stain is to create a solution with dish soap and warm water. Take one teaspoon of dish soap and mix it into a bowl of warm water. Stir the mixture together until it’s completely blended. Take the soft bristled brush and dip it into the soapy solution. Use the brush to lightly scrub the stained area.

Step 2: Applying Hydrogen Peroxide and Vinegar

Once you’ve scrubbed the stained area with the soapy solution, it’s time to apply hydrogen peroxide and white vinegar. Take a cloth and dampen it with hydrogen peroxide. Dab the cloth onto stained area and press gently. Next, take another cloth and dampen it with white vinegar. Rub cloth over stained area in a circular motion until the stain has been removed.

Step 3: Final Cleaning with Baking Soda

The final step in removing a tomato stain is to use baking soda. Take some baking soda on your fingertips and gently rub it over the stained area. The baking soda will help to lift any stubborn spots and make sure the stain is fully removed. After you’ve finished rubbing the baking soda over stain, wipe it away with a clean cloth.

Conclusion

With these easy steps, you’ll be able to quickly and easily remove tomato stains from your favorite ballet flats. Don’t forget to always test the cleaning methods on a hidden area of the fabric first to make sure it won’t cause any damage.
