Grab a paper towel or a cloth, and start blotting the stained area. Be sure to blot gently, as you don’t want to push the stain further into the fabric. Keep blotting until no more liquid is transferred to cloth.
In a bowl, mix equal parts of cold water and detergent. Soak the stained area of the raincoat in the mixture for about 10 minutes. This will help loosen the stain and make it easier to remove.
After soaking the stain, rinse the area with cold water and blot the area again using a paper towel. This will help remove the residue from detergent and water mixture.
Once the area is rinsed and blotted, spray an oxygen-based cleaner onto the stained area. Let the cleaner sit on stain for a few minutes before blotting again.
After you've applied the oxygen-based cleaner, throw the raincoat in the washing machine and wash it according to care label. Let it air dry afterward.
With the right process, cleaning wine stains from raincoats can be a breeze! Remember to blot gently, and to use an oxygen-based cleaner for best results. Now that you know how to clean wine stains, it's time to enjoy a glass of red without worrying about spills ruining your clothes!
