Stain removal rules
lMost stains are easier to remove when they are fresh. Old or set stains may not come out. Follow package directions for pretreatment products.

1.What kind of stain it is.
2.What kind of fabric it is and if it is colorfast (check label).

3.How old the stain is. Washing and drying can set some stains.
Start with cold or warm water. Hot water can set some stains.
When bleach is recommended, use a bleach that is safe for the fabric. Dilute chlorine bleach.
Test stain removers on an inside seam or hidden comer of the item to see if the color is removed.
Put the stained area face down on a paper towel or white cloth. Apply the stain remover to the back of the stain. This can force the stain off the fabric instead of through it.
Meat tenderizer or enzyme presoaks help break down some protein stains so they are easier to remove.
