How do I remove wildflower stains from canvas?

Scrape off any excess wildflowers stuck to the canvas using a dull knife. To tackle the stain, create a cleaning solution by mixing four parts cold water with one part white vinegar or mild liquid laundry detergent. Apply the solution to the stained area using a cotton ball or soft cloth, then gently rub the area in a circular motion and rinse the area with cold water.

What if the stain doesn't come out?

If the stain is still present, mix equal parts white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide and apply it to the stained area with a cotton ball. Once again, rub the area in a circular motion and rinse with cold water.

Removing Wildflower Stains from Canvas

Firstly, scrape off any excess wildflowers stuck to the canvas using a dull knife. If a stain remains, you will need to tackle it using a few steps:

Create a cleaning solution by mixing four parts cold water with one part white vinegar and/or mild liquid laundry detergent.
Test the solution on an inconspicuous area of canvas before proceeding.
If safe, apply the solution to the stained area using a cotton ball or soft cloth.
Gently rub the cotton ball or cloth in a circular motion.
Rinse area thoroughly with cold water to remove all traces of the cleaning solution.

Releasing Stain

Sometimes the stain may not be completely removed after the first cleaning. In this case, you may need to try a stronger cleaning formula.

Mix equal parts white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide
Apply the mixture to the stained area with a cotton ball
Gently rub the area in a circular motion
Rinse with cold water to remove all traces

Be cautious when using the hydrogen peroxide solution and ensure the affected area is well-rinsed afterwards.
