Before you start the cleaning process, you should always read the instructions provided by manufacturer. This will allow you to determine which cleaning products are safe to use on the fabric. It's also a good idea to test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area of the maxi dress before using it on the stain, just to make sure the product won't damage the fabric.
Steps to Clean Urine Stains from Maxi Dress
- Using a cloth or paper towel, carefully blot and absorb as much of the urine stain as possible.
- Mix 1 teaspoon of detergent with 1/2 cup of cool water in a bowl. Dip a clean cloth into the solution.
- Carefully dab the cloth onto the stain, working from the outside of the stain inward.
- Blot the area with a dry cloth to remove the cleaning solution.
- If the stain is still visible, mix 1 teaspoon of white vinegar with 1/2 cup of warm water. Dip a cloth into the solution and dab the stain, then blot with a dry cloth.
- Allow the area to air dry, then inspect fabric for any remaining stain. If necessary, repeat the above steps until the stain is gone.
Things To Remember
- Never rub the urine stain - this can make the stain spread and become more difficult to remove.
- If the stain is still visible after cleaning, you can try applying a stain remover or color-safe bleach to the area.
- If you're dealing with a delicate fabric such as silk, you should take the maxi dress to a dry cleaner.
