Materials Needed

  • Cotton twill fabric with sap stain
  • White vinegar
  • Gentle dish soap
  • Fine cloth or sponge

Instructions

  1. Mix together equal parts white vinegar and gentle dish soap in a bowl.
  2. Dampen a fine cloth or a sponge in the mixture and gently blot the sap stain with dampened cloth.
  3. Once the sap stain has been blotted off, rinse the area with room temperature water.
  4. Gently blot the area again with a dry cotton cloth until the stain is completely removed.
  5. Make sure to rinse and launder the fabric regularly to ensure that all sap residue is removed.

Tips & Tricks

  • Test the area of the fabric with cleaning solution first to make sure the color won’t fade.
  • Always work from the outside of the stain towards the middle to avoid spreading the stain.
  • Be sure to keep fabric flat while applying the cleaning solution to avoid drips.
  • If the stain still persists, repeat the steps above until it’s completely gone.
