When I was growing up,i had clothes I really loved but had to toss them away because of stains I didn't know how to remove...As a student too then,ink /biro,grease,( etc) stains made me dislike and condemn some very good clothes I had...Someone would ask "you dey write pen for body"?
Well,lets say it happens accidentally.
You could be at a party and have red wine splashed on your beautiful dress or shirt...would you throw it away? someone would say afterall I can take them to a laundry man/ dry cleaner....What if you knew the tricks the laundry man applies to get off tough stains?...
Atleast I know I have some friends who'd prefer to their laundry themselves.
Well,because I love you,i've taken my time to do a little research(from sheknows.com)on 5 common stains and how they are removed...Read it below:
1.How to remove red wine stain
If the fabric is dry clean only, use a dry cleaning solvent. If the fabric is washable, pretreat the stain with a laundry stain remover, then wash it per your garment's care instructions. If you're looking for a convenient at home remedy, saturate the affected garment with club soda, then wash.
2.How to remove chocolate stain
First, wait for the chocolate to harden. Then, use a spoon or butter knife to gently remove the chocolate from the affected garment. Next, use a dry cleaning solvent for washable and dry clean only fabrics. Place a white rag beneath the stain, then apply the solution directly on the chocolate. Blot the stain with your finger, then rinse with warm water and repeat if necessary.
3.How to remove blood stain
Treat blood stains as quickly as possible. Start by flushing cold water over the stain and blotting it with your fingertips. If this doesn't do the trick, use a dry cleaning solvent for washable and dry clean only fabrics. You also may use a laundry stain remover for washable fabrics. For an easy at home remedy, soak the garment in a mixture of ammonia and water for about 20 minutes, then rinse.
4.How to remove grease stain
First, apply an absorbent powder (like cornstarch, baking soda, or baby powder) to the grease stain and let it sit. If grease still remains, use a dry cleaning solvent for both washable and dry clean only fabrics. While treating, don't forget to place an absorbent white cloth beneath the stain.
5.How to remove ink Stain
Use hairspray! Place a clean rag underneath the stain and spray the ink until the fabric is saturated. Let it soak for several seconds and blot with another clean rag. Repeat until the ink stain is gone and launder as usual immediately afterward.
