Tree sap can be a surprisingly sticky mess to clean out of clothing, but it doesn't have to be if you know what to do. The first step is to try and remove as much of the sap as possible using your fingers. If the sap is still wet, use a blunt knife to gently scrape it away without damaging the fabric. As soon as you are done scraping away sap, it is important to act quickly. Sap that has dried onto the fabric can be a lot harder to remove.

When cleaning tree sap off of Piqué, it is best to use a mild detergent or soap as harsher solutions can damage this delicate fabric. Make a solution of warm water and liquid detergent and soak the garment before scrubbing away at the stain. You may need to repeat this process a few times in order to get rid of all the sap. It's important to keep the fabric wet while you are scrubbing, so be sure to apply the detergent solution regularly.

Once the sap is gone, take the garment and rinse it off with cold water. Once fabric is rinsed and mostly dry, you can put it in the laundry and wash it as normal. It is also important to note that using bleach, harsh detergents, or any other abrasive cleaning product can damage Piqué and should be avoided.

Tree sap stains can be a real headache to get out of clothes, but with right technique and the right products, you can get your garments looking spotless in no time. With these helpful tips, you'll be able to confidently tackle any tree sap stains that come your way.
