How To Remove Ice Cream Stains from Clothing
Don’t let ice cream stains ruin your favorite clothing. The stains from ice cream are protein-based and can be the most difficult dried stains to remove fully.
Remove ice cream stains once and for all in 4 easy steps!
1. Treat your spill: Place the stained fabric
into cold water for 5 to 10 minutes.
Hint: If the stain is dried, avoid hot water
because it will set a protein stain.
2. Rub laundry detergent into the stain: If
stains are still visible, rub liquid detergent
into the stained area. Next, soak the
garment in room temperature water for 30
minutes and rub the stain gently every few
minutes.
3. Rinse and add stain remover: After
rinsing the clothing, add a stain remover
to the stained area. Allow the garment
to sit for 7 to 10 minutes before rinsing
thoroughly with cold water.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until the stain is gone:
Repeat the soaking and stain remover
process until the ice cream is entirely
removed from the garment. Be sure there
are no remaining stains, and then proceed
with washing the clothing according to the
fabric directions.
Hint: Once the fabric has dried, the stains
are nearly impossible to remove.
