Gather Your Materials

To effectively remove tomato stains from corduroy, you'll need the following items:

  • Liquid dish detergent
  • Absorbent paper towels or cloth
  • A few drops of vinegar
  • An old toothbrush

Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions

  1. Start by blotting stained area with a paper towel or cloth to remove any excess tomato.
  2. Fold the paper towel or cloth in half and pour a few drops of liquid dish detergent onto it.
  3. Scrub area with an old toothbrush. This will help the dish soap penetrate fabric.
  4. Rinse the area with cold water, then blot the area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture.
  5. If the stain is still visible, mix a few drops of vinegar into a cup of cold water and dab the mixture onto stain. Then, rinse the area with cold water.
  6. Use a dry cloth to blot the area and allow area to air dry.

Preventing Future Tomato Stains

Obviously, the best way to remove tomato stains from corduroy is to avoid them in the first place. To do that, try pre-treating garments to create a protective barrier between your clothing and food. You could also wear an apron when cooking or eating foods that are likely to stain.
