Unfortunately, it cannot be said that situations when resin from trees or bushes gets on our clothes are so rare.

Such trouble can occur during a walk in the forest, working in a summer cottage, or simply when near green spaces.

As a result, a persistent stain appears on the clothes, which is not so easy to remove.

But don’t despair – there is a way to help you eliminate this problem while maintaining the quality and appearance of the fabric.

If the material allows, then first try using a knife to lightly scrape the clothing.

Then you should put the item in the freezer for a few days. After this procedure, you should wipe the fabric again to remove the resin.

If there is no time to freeze, you can use an iron. To do this, you need to put the clothes between sheets of paper and select the maximum temperature on the iron.

Gently iron the resin stain – the paper will absorb the resin and the stain will disappear.

If after this a small mark remains on the fabric, you can wash the clothes as usual. After washing, the stains should disappear.

Earlier we talked about how to wash a jacket so that the synthetic padding doesn’t bunch up.
