How to tackle any stain with ‘ultimate stain removal guide’

The “ultimate stain removal guide” lays out exactly how you can tackle 12 of the most common and tricky stains. 

The handy list of tricks and tips was recently shared on X (formerly Twitter). The post has been liked more than 280,000 times, with people keen to have it to hand for the next time they have a stain to deal with. 

It walks people through exactly what to apply to each stain, and how to apply it, in order to get whatever was stained looking brand new again. The guide goes as follows:

• Red wine – “dab with club soda, then cover with salt and let it sit overnight”. 
• Beer – “soak in cold water; pre-treat with stain remover and wash”.
• Coffee and tea – “dab with white vinegar before washing”. 

People on X were extremely thankful for the advice, and some shared their experiences of using the guide. One commented: “This was actually really helpful after I smeared a ton of foundation all over my favourite jeans the other day and couldn’t get it out even with throwing them in the washer right away.”

Another said: “I just spilled ketchup on my pants. Thanks for the tip!” And a third commented: “Very useful, esp about the blood.”
