🧼 Stain Removal Tips from the Laundry Pros at FastSplash

Life happens — and so do spills! Whether it’s a splash of red wine, coffee, or a mystery stain from your kid’s favorite meal, we’ve got your back. Check out these quick tips to treat stains at home before laundry day

🩸 1. Act Fast

The sooner you treat a stain, the better your chances of removing it. Gently blot (don’t rub!) with a clean cloth to absorb as much as possible.

☕ 2. Use Cold Water on Most Stains

Cold water works best for blood, wine, coffee, or food. Hot water can actually set protein stains into the fabric.

🍅 3. Avoid Heat Until the Stain is Gone

Don’t put stained clothing in the dryer until the mark is completely gone — heat can lock it in permanently.

🧽 4. Try These Quick DIY Remedies:

  • Grease/Oil: Sprinkle with baking soda, let sit, brush off, then treat with dish soap.

  • Red Wine: Dab with a mix of white vinegar and water, or use hydrogen peroxide + dish soap.

  • Ink: Rubbing alcohol can break it down — apply gently with a cotton swab.

🧼 5. Pre-Treat Before Washing

Before tossing stained clothes into the wash, apply a stain remover or liquid laundry detergent directly to the spot. Gently rub it in and let it sit for 5–10 minutes to loosen the stain. For stubborn stains, soak the garment in cold water for 30 minutes before washing
