What You'll Need to Get Rid of Wine Stains

  • Water
  • White vinegar
  • Rubbing alcohol
  • Dish soap
  • A soft cloth or sponge
  • A toothbrush

Step-by-Step Instructions for Cleaning Wine Stains from Umbrellas

  1. Rinse the umbrella with cool running water first. This will help get rid of any remaining debris left on the fabric.
  2. Mix together a solution of one cup white vinegar and one cup warm water in a bowl. Dip your cloth or sponge into the mixture and gently rub the soiled area.
  3. If the stain persists, try adding a drop of dish soap to the vinegar-water solution. Rub the stained area with the soapy solution, then rinse off with some fresh, cool water.
  4. If the stain is still visible, try applying a bit of rubbing alcohol directly to the spot. Use a toothbrush to work the alcohol into the fabric, then rinse off with cool water.
  5. Allow umbrella to air-dry completely before storing away.
