Tea/ Coffee Stains: Spilled coffee or tea? Sponge the stain with
lukewarm water before gently blotting with a bit of glycerin.
Ink Stains: To remove ink
stains on cotton, gently use rubbing alcohol, then wash. If it’s on polyester,
spray liberally with hair spray and pat with a clean, dry cloth, before
throwing the item into the machine.
Oil Stains: Due to its high level of surfactants, dish washing detergent is
especially successful at removing grease and oil stains from clothing.
Make-Up Stains: Use shaving cream
and a washcloth to remove liquid makeup from shirt collars.
Red Wine Stains: Soak red wine
stains in white wine, then cover the stain with a thick baking soda paste. Let
it sit a few hours, then wash as usual.
Wax Marks: If you get wax on a
piece of clothing, layer wax paper over the hardened wax and then run an iron
over it to loosen it up. Once you pull off the paper, the wax should come right
out with it.
Stains on Suede: To clean dirt off
suede, remove the crust from a piece of bread and allow it to become stale.
Gently rub dirt and stains with the edge of the stale bread, and they’ll
disappear. To de-scuff suede, use an eraser or nail file.
Lipstick Stains: Use hairspray to
remove a lipstick stain.
Sweat Marks: Remove to stubborn
sweats stains by applying a mixture of cream of tartar, crushed aspirin, and
warm water to the area. Wait twenty minutes, then rinse with warm water.
Remember: When it comes to stains, never forcefully rub or
pound—this further ingrains marks. Instead, always blot.
