- Next morning, take a wet brush and wash the stain off with little water.
- Now you have to follow the normal cleaning process either in a bucket or in the machine with detergent powder.
- If any trace of stain still remains on the cloth, you can try rubbing alcohol and do a repeat machine wash for best result.
