07.02.2024 17:37

Among all types of dirt, housewives especially highlight stains from drinks such as wine, tea or coffee.

All these natural dyes tend to penetrate into the fabric and are equally difficult to wash off from both tablecloths and clothes.

There are three pieces of advice for when you need to remove stains of this nature.

Salt

First, you need to dissolve the salt in a container with warm water and soak the stained item in it.

It is believed that it is not recommended to keep clothes in water for longer than half an hour, as dirty water can only worsen the situation.

Therefore, soaking continues for several hours, but with a change of water.

Then you need to put the clothes in the washing machine on a double rinse cycle.

Glycerol

If this advice does not help, then it makes sense to try glycerin. Housewives claim that it allows you to remove even difficult to remove stains.

Glycerin is applied to the ingrained old stain and left for 20-30 minutes.

Then carry out hand or machine washing, as required by the manufacturer.

The remedy works even in cases when nothing else helps.

Complex solution

And in case there are any doubts left, you can mix:

  • one teaspoon of glycerin;
  • one glass of water;
  • 2-3 drops of ammonia.

However, this method is not recommended for items made from delicate materials.
