How did that stain appear? It just happens. One moment your project is clean and stain free. All of a sudden,a drop of blood, ink or oil appears. What can you do to take out your unwanted stains? Try some of the following solutions.
505 Spray Adhesive -- 505 is a spectacular, spray adhesive to use when sticking my fabric to my stabilizer when I am stitching motor exaggeration designs. But occasionally some of the adhesive gets sprayed on the fabric. Sometime it is caused by some residue left over from spraying too much on the stabilizer in the hoop.
Use 90% rubbing alcohol (not the drinking kind :)) to get 505 out of your fabric or project. The 90% is important; not all shop stock that percentage. The lower ration bottles will not be as sufficient as the 90%. Look for this in the pharmacy departments of most stores. If you still cannot get the stain out with the alcohol, try using Ecover Citrus Cleaner & Degreaser. It's an oil based cleaner that can be found in many shop or online.
To forestall this, all the time spray your stabilizer, not your fabric with 505. Avoid spraying too much 505 on the hooped stabilizer before sticking the fabric on top of it.
Blood -- Yes, I try to keep my fingers away from sharp objects, but invariably a pin, needle, pair of scissors or rotary cutter finds its way straight through to my skin, drawing whether a drop or a bucket of blood. When I can't get my project out of the way in time, a red spot appears.
Treat the stain right away with hydrogen peroxide. Use a cottonball or clean cloth to blot the stain with the peroxide. This will categorically take out the blood. Rinse in cold water and treat again if needed. Other selection is your own saliva. Your own saliva has enzymes that will treat your own blood stains. I know it's not the most lively thing, but it does work!
What's the prophylactic performance to take for this kind of stain? Just keep your fingers away from sharp objects! :)
Ink pen or motor oil -- Ink pens are all nearby my sewing room and as hard as I try to keep them contained to one table, they tend to walk toward my fabric. motor oil will sometime get on my fabric after I have first oiled my machine.
Any oil based cleaner in your laundry cabinet will take out most ink and oil stains. I like to use Ecover Citrus Cleaner & Degreaser or De-Solv-It; they both work very well with ink and oil stains. I will get the stain out of the fabric with the cleaner and then wash it with some soap and water to be sure I have removed all the remaining residue. There could be a little ring or shadow created if not all the cleaner is rinsed out. You can find both these products in many stores.
Try to keep ink pens away from your fabric and projects. Throw away any pens that leak or leave blobs of ink. To keep oil stains to a minimum, sew a scrap of fabric straight through your motor after oiling it. Keep sewing until oil doesn't appear on your fabric. If your motor sits unused for any hours or a combine of days, you may need to stitch on a fabric scrap before sewing on your project.
