1. Scrape off excess slime: Gently use a blunt knife or spoon to remove as much slime as possible without damaging the fabric.
2. Pre-treat the stain:
For wet slime: Apply white vinegar to the stained area and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Alternatively, use rubbing alcohol or a mixture of dish soap and water.
For dried slime: Create a paste with baking soda and vinegar. Apply it to the stain, let it dry completely, then brush off the dried paste with a soft brush.
3. Scrub and rinse: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the stained area. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
4. Launder as usual: Wash the garment according to the care label instructions. Important: Only dry the garment after all the slime is gone, as heat can set the stain.
Additional tips:
If the stain persists, repeat the pre-treatment and washing steps.
For delicate fabrics, test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
Avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach, as they can damage the fabric.
If you're still struggling to remove the slime, you may consider taking the garment to a professional cleaner.
