How to Get Rid of Every Kind of Stain

Earth-based stains

Earth-based stains are anything from the Earth, like fruit juices, colas, teas, and red wines.

In a container, add 2 ounces of dishwashing detergent, 2 ounces of white vinegar, and 2 ounces of water. Stir well.

Test the solution in an unnoticeable area of the garment to be sure the color doesn’t bleed. Gently rub it in with a towel. Rinse it with cold water.

Protein-based stains

Protein-based stains are anything from the live body.

In a container, add 2 tablespoons of water, a teaspoon of ammonia, a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide, and a teaspoon of detergent. Stir well.

Pour a little bit of the solution into the stain. Gently rub it in with a towel, then tap.

Oil-based stain

In a container, add 1 ounce of degreaser and an ounce of water. If you need to, add a little bit of nail polish remover to make it stronger. Make sure you don’t have acetate fabric when using nail polish remover. Mix well. Pour it into the oil-based stain, let it sit for a couple of minutes, then gently rub to remove the stain.
