Summer is associated with many housewives not only with hot days, holidays and outdoor recreation, but also with the struggle with especially persistent pollution on clothes. More often than not others in this area, the question arises as to remove stains from dandelions.
The juice of this bright and beloved by all plants has one unpleasant feature - drying up, it turns into brown "blots" that clearly appear not only on white, but also dark fabric. Fortunately, over the long years of fighting this problem, affordable and effective ways of repairing damaged clothing have been found.
Rules for the use of professional products
No one denies the stability of the spots left by the dandelion juice, but this does not mean that it is necessary to resort to using too aggressive means. At home, you can limit yourself to one of the following products:
- Bleach. It is hard to imagine a more effective tool than all the known "Whiteness" when working with white fabrics. Just apply a little product directly to the stain, wait about half an hour and wash the product in the typewriter in the standard way. If the type of clothing and material allows, then apply high temperatures.
- Cleaners. This is not the most successful option for a bright fabric, but for dark or light-colored single-color products it is quite suitable. Most often, Domestos and Vanish are used. We put the composition on the stains from dandelions, wait a quarter of an hour and wash the product as usual.
Tip: Fresh stains from dandelion juice on clothes are not visible at all, but their presence can be suspected by the presence of a sharp odor, characteristic of the flower. If the probability of contamination of a thing exists, it simply needs to be washed in the usual way by hand or in a typewriter. In the vast majority of cases, this prevents the appearance of hard-to-remove brown contaminants.
- Laundry soap. Optimum option for colored fabric, despite the fact that the tool is universal. True, he takes a lot of time. The problem place is moistened and rubbed with a bar of the most common brown soap with the same pungent smell. After that, soak the product in warm water( it can also add a little soap chips) for 8-10 hours. Regardless of the changes that have occurred with the stain, we erase the thing as usual.
- Liquid stain removers. Specialized tools cope with specific impurities no worse than dry cleaning. You only need to decide what to wash the stains in a particular case( the tool is selected depending on the type and color of the fabric) and apply it according to the instructions.
There is no need to rub the dirt. The above approaches and without aggressive machining give a decent result.
Features of the use of folk remedies
If you do not have a suitable household chemical product at hand, it's worth trying to get by with products that can be found in any home. When working with stains from a dandelion, the following approaches have been recommended from the best side:
- AND Use of an iron. Take a clean sheet of paper and an iron, heated on a flax or cotton. We cover the problem zone with paper and carefully iron it. Repeat until the stains are completely removed.
- Lemon juice. Apply the liquid directly to the contamination, wait half an hour and wash the garment in the machine on a suitable mode. If necessary, repeat the manipulation.
- Onion juice. Cut a small bulb and straight cut rub the problem area. Leave the processed product for 20 minutes, then wash it in the standard way.
The above methods, provided they are correctly applied, allow you to quickly restore a damaged item without damaging its fibers. The main thing is to adequately assess the characteristics of the tissue and use only suitable options for exposure, starting with the most sparing.
