Stain Removal Chart

---

The first step in stain removal is to blot out as much of the stain as possible if it is still wet.

Very Important! Never Rub a Stain. Blot only!!!!

Many times a stain is removed but the damage from rubbing a spot especially on silk garments causes permanent damage which can ruin a garment. By blotting with an absorbent towel or paper towel you draw out the stain without causing damage.

Stains fall into 3 major categories, Grease - Plants – Animals and then there are combinations of these categories. Keep the 4 major spotting chemicals on hand and you will be able to remove most stains. Warning!
