Step 1: Blot the Stain with a Paper Towel

The first step to removing red wine from your parka is to blot the stain with a paper towel. This will help absorb some of the liquid, making it easier to treat the stain. Place a clean, dry towel on top of the stain and gently but firmly press down on the area. Repeat until no more liquid comes up on the towel.

Step 2: Pre-treat the Stain With a Detergent

Next, you'll want to pre-treat the stain with a detergent. For this step, you can use either a store-bought detergent such as Woolite or a homemade solution of dish soap and water. Simply apply a few drops of the detergent directly onto the stain and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, take a soft-bristled brush and gently scrub the area to work the detergent into the fibers.

Step 3: Spot-Clean the Stain with a Cloth

Finally, it's time to spot-clean the stain with a cloth. Take a clean, white cloth and dampen it with some cold water. Gently dab the stained area using cloth. Be sure to use an up-and-down motion in order to avoid spreading the stain further. Keep repeating until the stain has been removed.

Conclusion

With these three steps, your parka should be stain-free and looking good as new! It's important to remember to be gentle when working with delicate fabrics like parkas. If the stain persists, try repeating the steps a second or even third time until stain is fully removed.
