What You'll Need
- Toothbrush
- White vinegar
- Dish soap
- Oxygen bleach
- Baking soda
Instructions
- Working quickly (the sooner better), use a toothbrush to dab at the stain, taking care not to spread it further.
- Mix one part white vinegar with two parts water. Using this solution, apply it to the stain and let it sit for up to 15 minutes.
- Using a paper towel or old cloth, dab-dry the stains as much as possible. Be sure not to rub the stain.
- If stain persists, mix a solution of dish soap and warm water, and dip a clean cloth into the mixture.
- Using the damp cloth, gently blot the stain until it has lifted as much as possible.
- If the stain still remains, mix a solution of oxygen bleach and warm water, and apply it to the affected area.
- Let oxygen bleach sit for up to 10 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with cold water. Do not rub the fabric.
- If the stain is still visible, create a paste out of baking soda and water, and apply it to the stain. Let the paste sit for up to 30 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
Additional Tips
- Always pretest any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area to ensure colorfastness.
- Be sure to avoid using hot water, as this can set in the stain.
- If using oxygen bleach, always wear gloves when handling the chemical.
