Treating stubborn stains
Sweat, blood, fruit, wine and chocolate stains generally disappear with customary
detergents, but other stains need specific treatment before being put into the machine.
First, perform a test on a hidden area of the fabric and rinse thoroughly. If you apply a
stain remover, always start with the outside of the stain to avoid rings.
• Alcoholic drinks: wash the stain in cold water, then dab it with a mixture of glycerine
and water and rinse with a mixture of water and vinegar.
• Wax: scrape the stain lightly without damaging the fabric, scrub with a detergent
and rinse. If the stain persists, scrub with 1 volume pure alcohol (96°) mixed with 2
volumes of water, then wash in warm water.
• Tea and coffee: stretch the stained part out over a container and pour over water that
is as hot as possible yet tolerated by the fabric. Wash with detergent if this does not
risk damaging the fabric.
