Caring for Cotton
Cotton is an extremely versatile material
Stain Removal
Coffee stains
Either rinse the stain immediately with lukewarm water or carefully apply glycerine to it. Then wash normally.
Carrot stains
If you expose the stain to strong sunlight, it will cause the brownish spot to bleach.
Fruit and ink stains
Dab the stains with alcohol (90%) and wash as normal.
Grease and oil spots
Sprinkle talcum powder on the spot and leave it overnight. Talcum absorbs the grease from the fabric, and you should be able to simply shake it off. Repeat if necessary, then wash as normal.
Make-up and sun-lotion stains
For stains on cotton or linen textiles use a mild bleaching solution and then rinse out.
Perfume stains
Carefully clean delicate textiles immediately using benzene.
Sweat stains
For stains on cotton and linen textiles, add two spoonfuls of salt to the water and wash as normal.
