How to remove gravy stains
The keys to removing stains from cloth items like napkins or tablecloths are to pre-treat them the minute the stains happen, and to make sure that stains are completely removed before you put the items into the dryer.
Here are the steps you go through to remove gravy stains:- Scrape or spoon off as much of the gravy as possible.
- Then rinse with cool water from the back to the front.
- If the stain is still not removed, then soak in cool water with liquid enzyme detergent for 5 minutes.
- If the stain is still not removed, then apply chlorine bleach directly to stained area using an eyedropper. (Use a non-chlorine product like hydrogen peroxide if the stain is on a colored fabric.) Let sit for a few minutes.
- If the stain is still not removed, then put the item in the washing machine.
- Put it in the dryer only if stain is completely removed.
