STAIN REMOVAL
Not all stains can be removed by a machine wasching.
The following instructions describe the treatment to be given to material prior to being loaded in the machine, in
order to avoid an unsuccessful wash and the for mation of residual discolouring.
- Wax: Remove the wax with a non-cutting edge in order to remove as much as possible, then place a sheet of
paper between an iron and the stained item.
- Ball point and felt tip pens: Reduce the stain with the aid of a soft cloth soaked in colourless 90° alcohol. Be
careful not to spread the stain.
- Damp marks and mildew: After having checked that the item is colourfast on a non-visible part, put it to soak
in water with added bleach. Otherwise, place the item in 10% oxygenated water and leave for 10-15 minutes.
- Ironing marks: If the fabric is slightly marked, use the procedure described for mildew.
- Rust: Use an anti-rust product following the manufacturer's instructions.
- Chewing gum: Dilute using acetone and remove with a clean cloth.
- Paint: Do not wait for the paint to dry. Treat immediately with the solvent indicated on the paint container (water,
turps, trichloroethylene), wash with soap and water, then rinse.
- Lipstick: Dab with ether if the item is wool or cotton, or with trichloroethylene if it is silk.
- Nail varnish: Place the stained part of the item on a sheet of absorbent paper, then wet the other side of the item
with acetone. Ensure that the sheet of absorbent paper is changed frequently. Continue until the stain has completely
disappeared.
- Metal stains: Apply lemon juice until the stain has completely or almost disappeared.
- Grease or tar: Spread some fresh butter on the stain, leave for a while then dab with oil of turpentine.
- Grass: Soap delicately, treat with diluite bleach. For woollens, 90° alcohol can give good results.
