What You’ll Need
- Rubbing alcohol
- Cotton swabs
- Soft toothbrush
- Liquid laundry detergent
Step-by-Step Guide
- Lift any large chunks of tree sap away from the fabric with your fingertips or a spoon.
- Soak a cotton swab in rubbing alcohol and gently dab at the stained area – do not rub! This will help to break down the remaining sap.
- When the sap has been broken down, use a soft toothbrush to scrub the stain away.
- Wash the yoga pants with liquid laundry detergent as directed by the manufacturer.
- Check to make sure the tree sap stain is gone before drying.
Additional Tips
- If the sap is too difficult to remove using the above method, try using an oil-based product such as WD-40 instead of rubbing alcohol.
- Be sure to follow the washing instructions on the label of your yoga pants. Some fabrics may need to be dry cleaned instead.
