You can pre-treat with our All-Purpose detergent for tough stains on these fabrics, but only as needed. Dilute and apply directly to the stain - 1 part detergent to 2 parts water is a good ratio. Gently dab on and around the stained area from the back of the fabric using a clean cloth or cotton ball. Do not rub. Do not allow it to set for longer than 10-15 minutes. Follow by washing with Silk & Wool detergent as specified above.
