Soy sauce is great with sushi.
But this black sauce stains badly! And this is one of the hardest stains to remove.
Some commercial cleaning products do not completely remove soy sauce stains and leave streaks.
Fortunately, there are tips for removing a soy stain depending on the nature of the fabric.
With these 4 methods, you will be able to effectively get rid of soy sauce on any fabric . Watch:
The first thing to do is dilute the stain.
And to do this, I use an ice cube that facilitates stain removal.
Then I dab the stain with a cloth soaked in white vinegar.
Once the soy sauce stain is thoroughly soaked in white vinegar, let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
Then rinse with clear water and put the fabric in the washing machine.
This solution is perfect for a white cotton or linen tablecloth or a white garment for example.
Make a baking soda paste by mixing 3 parts baking soda and 1.5 parts water.
Apply the paste to the soy sauce stain and rub gently.
Leave on for about 15 minutes before rinsing and washing in the washing machine.
You can use this technique on a cotton, linen or wool fabric, but also on your fabric or microfiber sofa.
If you've splattered soy sauce on your leather bag, this technique works too.
Except that you will rinse the leather with a damp cloth and spare it the "washing machine" box.
If necessary, then apply a leather balm to nourish and soften it.
If you don't want to use white vinegar or baking soda or you don't have any, Marseille soap is the best solution.
Dilute the stain with an ice cube and then rub the soap directly on the soy sauce stain to soak it in well.
Leave on for 30 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water by rubbing the fabric under the tap.
The stain will disappear quickly and all you have to do is put the fabric in the washing machine.
To detach fragile fabrics such as silk, satin, suede, nubuck, velvet, but also rugs or carpets, dishwashing liquid is perfect.
It gets rid of soy stains without damaging the fabric.
The important thing here is to act quickly so that the fibers of the fabric do not soak up the soy sauce.
Absorb as much liquid as possible with a paper towel or sponge.
Then, dab the stain with a sponge soaked in washing-up liquid.
Leave on for a few minutes before rinsing and washing in the washing machine.
Warning: always test on a small area of the fabric as a precaution.
