How to remove oil stains on down jackets

Removing animal and plant oil stains: This type of oil stain is the most common in life and can be wiped or brushed with a solvent such as gasoline or other organic solvent. When scrubbing, it is best to use a towel or cotton cloth to absorb the stain solution wiped off in time to prevent some stains from remaining on the surface of the clothes after the solution evaporates, leaving marks on the surface of the clothes. If there are traces left, you can remove them by repeated wiping or brushing over a larger area. You can also apply water to the stained area of ​​the clothes and spray it off with a high-pressure spray gun.

Removing tung oil stains: When removing tung oil stains, you can use gasoline or kerosene to brush to dissolve the tung oil, then use alcohol soap to remove the traces left, and finally wash it again with detergent to completely remove the traces.

When removing light-colored machine oil stains, you can brush them with gasoline, then place a piece of highly absorbent paper or cloth on the top and bottom of the oily stain on the clothes, and then iron them at low temperature with an electric iron to allow the oil to slowly evaporate and be absorbed by the absorbent paper or cloth. If necessary, repeat the operation several times until all the oil stains are absorbed, and finally wash and rinse with detergent. When you are stained with dark-colored machine oil stains, you can only use high-quality gasoline to rinse, and then put a highly absorbent paper or cloth under it. The rest of the method is the same as above.

When removing candle oil stains on clothes, first rub off the wax on the surface with your hands, then use paper with strong adsorption properties, such as blotting paper, and place it on the upper and lower sides of the stain. Iron it with an electric iron at low temperature. The candle will melt when it encounters heat, and the melted candle oil will be absorbed by the blotting paper. If necessary, you can repeat the operation several times to remove the oil stains more effectively.
