Chiffon is a light, airy and sheer fabric made of silk, rayon, cotton or synthetic fibers. As a result, it can be much more difficult to clean than other fabrics, and extra care must be taken to ensure that the chiffon doesn’t get damaged. Here are some tips on how to effectively remove wildflower stains from chiffon.
Step 1: Rinse Immediately
The best way to remove a wildflower stain from chiffon is to get to it as soon as you notice it. Rinse the stained area with cool water and blot it with a soft cloth or paper towel. Do not rub or scrub the stain, as this could cause damage to the fabric.
Step 2: Soak in a Solution
Mix together a solution of one tablespoon of mild liquid detergent with two cups of lukewarm water in a bowl. Submerge the stained area into the solution and let it sit for around 10 minutes. Leave it to soak any longer than this and you risk damaging the fabric.
Step 3: Rinse and Dry
Remove chiffon from the solution and rinse it in cool, clear water. Blot it again with a soft cloth to get rid of any excess moisture. Hang it up and let it dry naturally, avoiding direct sunlight or heat sources, which can also cause damage.
