What You Need

A small bowl
½ cup of warm water
½ cup of white vinegar
A clean cloth
A tablespoon of laundry detergent or dish soap
Stain remover spray (optional)

Step 1: Remove Excess Tomato Sauce

The first step is to remove any excess sauce from the fabric. Use a clean cloth or a paper towel to blot away as much of stain as possible. Try not to rub the stain, as it may spread and make stain worse.

Step 2: Create a Stain Removing Solution

Mix together ½ cup of warm water, ½ cup of white vinegar, and a tablespoon of laundry detergent or dish soap in a small bowl. Make sure all ingredients are mixed together until you form a thick liquid.

Step 3: Apply Solution to the Stain

Dampen a clean cloth with the solution and gently dab it onto the tomato stain, applying light pressure. Allow the solution to sit for about 10 minutes before rinsing with cool water.

Step 4: Rinse Skirt and Check the Stain

Rinse the skirt with cold water and check to see if the stain has been removed. If the stain is still present, repeat steps 2 and 3 until the stain is completely gone.

Step 5: Use a Stain Remover Spray (Optional)

If the stain is still visible, you can try using a stain remover spray. Simply spray the product directly onto the stain and allow it to sit for a few minutes. Then, rinse the skirt with cold water and check to see if the stain has been removed.

Step 6: Wash the Skirt

Once stain is gone, wash the skirt according to the instructions on care label. Allow the skirt to air dry or tumble dry it on the lowest setting.
