TO REMOVE
Scrape off excess with a dull knife. Soak in cold or warm water with
enzyme presoak at least 30 minutes, or treat stains with a nonflammable
fabric cleaner. Wash.
Wash in hottest water safe for fabric. If stain remains, soak in warm water
and a colour safe bleach for 15 to 30 minutes. Rewash. (Old mildew
stains are almost impossible to remove. Mildew fungus destroys or
weakens fabrics.) An alternative to bleach is to treat with salt and lemon
juice and dry in direct sunlight. Rinse and rewash. Mildew may form if wet
or damp laundry remains in your washer for extended periods of time. To
prevent mildew, promptly dry laundry after washing.
Treat immediately.
Scrape off excess mustard. Sponge with a nonflam-
mable fabric cleaner or a prewash soil and stain remover. Rinse. Work
liquid detergent and a few drops of vinegar into stain. Rinse. If stain
remains, apply 3% hydrogen peroxide. Rinse and wash.
Hand wash paint-stained
items.
Water base: Treat stains while still wet. (These paints cannot be removed
after they have dried.) Rinse in warm water to flush out paint. Sponge with
a nonflammable
fabric cleaner. Rinse. Wash.
Oil base: Scrape off fresh paint. Sponge with a nonflammable
fabric
cleaner or treat stain with recommended
thinner. While stain is still wet
with solvent, rub liquid detergent into it. Wash with hottest water safe
for fabric.
Remove stains before ironing. Perspiration stains may weaken fabric.
Wash or sponge stain thoroughly with detergent and warm water. If
perspiration
has changed the colour of the fabric, use one of the following
treatments:
Fresh stains: Apply ammonia to stain. Rinse. Launder to remove
ammonia odour.
Old stains: Apply white vinegar to stain. Rinse. Launder to remove
vinegar odour.
Severe scorch cannot be removed. Wet stain with 3% hydrogen peroxide.
Cover with a dry cloth and press with an iron as hot as is safe for fabric.
Rinse well. Wash.
OR
Wet with lemon juice and spread in the sun to dry. Wash.
Sponge immediately with cold water and alcohol. Heat and detergent may
set stain.
