Ink that has soaked through multiple layers of fabric (like quilts or comforters), or left on the fabric for longer periods before washing, may require additional cleaning and supplies.
Optional cleaning materials you may need:
• Amodex® Spot Remover
• Amodex® Stain Swipe Wipes
We suggest:
1. First, test Amodex Spot Remover on an inside seam or hidden area.
2. Apply Amodex Spot Remover to the stain and allow it to sit for about 10 minutes.
3. Gently scrub the area using the Amodex Stain Swipe Wipe or a soft brush.
4. Rinse with water, and repeat as needed to remove as much ink as possible.
5. Lastly, machine wash according to the instructions above or hand wash the fabric using laundry detergent.
