A viscous mass of various colors, which can take any shape, is a favorite pastime of many children.

Despite the fact that the slime does not stick to your hands, it does cling to clothing, as they say, just right.

Luckily, it's much easier to remove slime from a T-shirt or pants than it is to clean it from a carpet, so if such a nuisance happens, you're lucky.

The main rule that you should never forget is that the sooner you notice a stain, the easier it will be to wash it out.

The first thing you should do is try to get rid of the slime mechanically.

If the fabric is strong, try scraping the liquid off with a teaspoon, nail file or knife. In the case of delicate materials, try enlisting the help of chewing gum or plasticine.

After this, it is the turn of the solvent.

Alcohol or vodka, dishwashing liquid, vinegar, or peroxide will do for this purpose, but regardless of which product you choose, you should first test it on an inconspicuous area.

To complete the cleaning procedure, wash the item as usual.
