What You'll Need

Cotton swab
Mild detergent
Cleaning cloth

Step 1: Remove Any Visible Excess Sap

Start by using a cotton swab to pick off any excess sap from the fabric. Be careful not to spread the sap around even more. If the sap is dried, it should come away easily.

Step 2: Wet a Cleaning Cloth

Soak your cleaning cloth in a basin of warm water. Make sure to wring out the excess moisture before proceeding.

Step 3: Add Detergent to the Cloth

Mix a few drops of mild detergent into the wet cleaning cloth. Test the cloth on a small, inconspicuous area of the garment to make sure it won't cause discoloration or other damage to the fabric.

Step 4: Rub the Stained Area

Gently rub the stained area with cloth. Try to limit the pressure you apply in order to avoid further staining fabric. Keep rubbing until sap has been completely removed.

Step 5: Rinse off the Stained Area

Rinse the area with cold water and inspect it for any remaining stains. If there are, repeat steps 4 and 5 until the stain has been completely removed.

Step 6: Air Dry Fabric

Let the fabric air dry, then inspect it for any remaining stains. If the fabric is still stained, repeat steps 4 - 6 until the stain is gone.
