And bim! You spilled red wine on your beautiful white shirt...
This type of stain is particularly stubborn.
Do you think your garment is good to put in the trash?
Luckily, here's a quick and easy grandma's trick to remove a stubborn red wine stain.
The trick is to use hydrogen peroxide and washing up liquid . Watch:
- 2 tablespoons of washing-up liquid
- 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide
- 250 ml of water
- 1 vaporizer
- 1 bowl
1. Put the water in the spray bottle.
2. Add hydrogen peroxide.
3. Add dishwashing liquid.
4. Close the spray bottle and mix well.
5. Place the stain over a bowl to prevent the stain from spreading.
6. Spray the mixture on the stain.
7. Leave on for 10 min.
8. Spray the stain again with the mixture.
9. Leave on for a few minutes.
10. Repeat the operation until the stain disappears completely.
11. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
12. Machine wash as usual.
There you go, your garment is now all clean! The red wine stain has completely disappeared :-)
Easy and quick, right? And it works, even if the stain is dry and old!
If the stain is still damp and fresh, remember to first absorb as much wine as possible with paper towel.
Now you'll know what to do if it happens to you during lunch.
Obviously, this trick works to remove wine stains on all types of fabric (cotton, linen), including tablecloths.
This remedy is perfect for white tissue. For other colors, test first on a small area to see what happens.
Know that this method works much better than those that use baking soda, white vinegar or soapy water.
On the other hand, avoid putting coarse salt on it. It may react with the tannin and set the stain. Oxidation will make the stain even harder to remove.
