You finally got a new abaya that fits you perfectly and you can’t wait to wear it. But then you’re in for a nasty surprise - toothpaste smudges, smears and stains. This could happen right after you’re done brushing your teeth or when you get ready to go out of the house.

Don’t worry, though. No matter how careful you are, getting stain off fabric of your abaya doesn’t have to be a difficult task.

Steps to Remove Toothpaste Stains from Abaya

  • Step 1: Start by removing as much of toothpaste as possible. Use a paper towel or a clean cloth to blot the area gently.
  • Step 2: Place abaya in a laundry bag or an old pillow case and set your washing machine to the gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and cold water.
  • Step 3: Once the cycle is complete, check the stained area. If the stain is still visible, apply a small amount of pre-wash stain remover to the spot and allow it to sit for a few minutes before washing again.
  • Step 4: Hang your abaya to air dry. Do not place it in the dryer, as this could cause the stain to set and become even harder to remove.

Tips for Avoiding Toothpaste Stains on Abayas

  • Always wear a protective barrier such as a bib while brushing your teeth to protect your clothing from getting stained.
  • Make sure to remove toothpaste stains as soon as possible to avoid discolorations.
  • Wash and dry your abayas immediately after wearing them to avoid stains from setting.
  • Be sure to use a gentle detergent when washing your abaya.
