If your silk habotai fabric has been stained with varnish, the most important thing to keep in mind is that you should never use harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing materials. This can damage the delicate fabric and cause further discoloration.

Steps for Removing Varnish Stains

  1. Start by gently scraping off as much of the varnish as possible with a dull knife.
  2. Mix up a solution of lukewarm water and mild detergent. Use a soft cloth to blot the stain with the detergent solution, working from the outside edge of the stain towards the center in order to avoid spreading it.
  3. Once the detergent has been thoroughly absorbed, rinse the area with clean water. Do not scrub or rub the stain, as this can further spread the stain and/or cause damage to the fabric.
  4. To help remove any remaining varnish residue, mix a solution of two parts white vinegar and one part warm water. Blot this solution onto the stain, and then rinse with clean water.
  5. If the stain still remains, you may need to spot-clean it with a dry cleaning solvent. Before using, make sure to test it in an inconspicuous area of the fabric first, to ensure that it won’t cause fading or discoloration.
  6. Finally, hang fabric in a well-ventilated area until completely dry.

Though this process may seem complicated, if you follow these steps carefully, you should be able to successfully remove any varnish stains from your silk habotai fabric.
