STAIN REMOVAL TIPS
Before using special-purpose stain removers, try using the natural methods that do not harm the
environment to remove less stubborn stains.
Prompt action will make it easier to remove stains! Damp the stain and then rinse with cold
(lukewarm) water - but never with hot water!
Stains Stain removal
Mud When the stain is dry, first scrape it off the garment before washing
it in the washing machine. If the stain is stubborn, soak it with
an enzyme-based stain remover before the wash. If the stain is
not stubborn, remove it with liquid detergent or powder detergent
manually before the wash.
Antiperspirant Before washing in the washing machine, apply liquid detergent
onto the laundry. Apply stain removers on any stubborn stains.
Alternatively, use oxygen-based bleach for the wash.
Tea Soak or rinse the laundry in cold water and add stain remover if
necessary.
Chocolate Soak or rinse the laundry with lukewarm soapy water. Then, apply
lemon juice and rinse.
Ink Before washing in the washing machine, apply stain removers on
the stain. You may also use denatured alcohol. Turn the garment
inside out and place a paper towel under the stain. Use the alcohol
on the back side of the stain. At the end of the process, thoroughly
rinse the garment.
Felt tip pens Dilute some starch in water and apply it to the stain. When it dries,
scrape it off with a brush; then, wash the garment in the washing
machine.
Baby food (urine, mud,
food stains)
Before washing in the washing machine, soak the stains in
lukewarm water for at least half an hour. For easier stain removal,
add an enzyme-based stain remover.
Grass Before washing in the washing machine, soak the laundry in an
enzyme-based stain remover.
Grass stains can also be removed by soaking (for approx. 1 hour)
in diluted lemon juice or distilled vinegar.
Eggs Soak the garment in an enzyme-based stain remover. Soak in
cold water for at least 30 minutes, or a few hours if the stains are
stubborn. Then, wash in the washing machine.
Coffee Soak the garment in salt water. If the stain is not fresh, soak it with
a mixture of glycerine, ammonia and alcohol.
Shoe polish Apply cooking oil to the stain and rinse.
