## How to remove stains from clothes

If you use a washing machine:

- Select the correct temperature and the wash program.
- In general, use hot water for white and very dirty things, cold water for darker colours and warm water for colours that can fade;
- Do not overload the washing machine.

 

If you wash by hand:
- Wait until the powder has entirely dissolved before putting clothes in the washing solution;
- To ensure the clothes have minimal creases, try to hang them up to dry straight away.

 

## Pre-soaking.

Soak heavily soiled clothes in warm water with high quality cleaning products such as Daz or Ariel for white clothes, or fairy non-bio for coloured clothing.

## Pre-treatment.

Some stains, if not pre-treated, can remain on clothes and be difficult to remove. While there are some dedicated stain removers, did you know that some high-quality laundry detergent can also help you remove stains from fabrics on their own? You can remove many stains by simply pre-treating with Ariel and water. However, for stains that require special attention, you can proceed with the tips provided below.

 

Don’t forget to pre-check the colour fastness by testing on a hidden part of the fabric before beginning the pre-treatment process.

 

__Blood:__ Rinse item in cold water and wash using Ariel at a temperature of 30-40 ° C.

 

__Ink:__ Wipe the stain with cotton wool soaked in alcohol (be careful with unstable dyes!), then wash normally using Ariel.

 

__Wax or paraffin wax:__ Use a dull knife to carefully remove the remnants of wax and then iron the fabric between layers of blotting paper (in this case, put the fabric inside out on the ironing board). Then wash normally using Ariel.

 

__Fruit:__ Wash on a hot cycle using Ariel.

 

__Red Wine:__ Sprinkle salt or baking soda on the fresh stain, then wash using Daz.

 

__Bubble Gum or adhesive tape:__ Ice the stain or freeze the fabric in the freezer. Use a blunt knife to remove the excess and put the stain on blotting paper, wiping from the inside with cotton wool soaked in gasoline, alcohol or acetone (nail polish remover). Then wash, as you usually would, using Bold.

 

__Coffee or tea:__ Wash in hot water using Ariel.

 

__Cosmetics:__ Soak for five to ten minutes in lukewarm water before washing normally with Daz.

 

__Grease, oil or margarine:__ Place the stain on blotting paper and wipe from the inside with cotton wool soaked in gasoline or alcohol. Allow the fabric to dry first, then soak in lukewarm water for five to ten minutes before washing the fabric as you usually would with Bold.

 

__Lipstick:__ Place the item on a sheet of blotting paper, stain facing down, and dab from the reverse side with cotton wool soaked in alcohol. Change the paper if needed, then wash normally, using Ariel.

 

__Dirt:__ Soak in lukewarm water for five to ten minutes, add vinegar, and then wash normally using Daz.

 

__Nail polish:__ Place the item on a sheet of blotting paper, stain facing down, and dab the stain from the reverse side with cotton wool soaked in nail polish remover. Change the paper if needed, then wash normally, using Bold.
