Some Tips To Clean The Food Stains
By Mitch
There are some other food stains which can happen anytime during the dinner or lunch time. Start from the gravy stains to the salad dressing. Use these tips on how to remove the stains.
Lipstick and perspiration stains can sometimes become a problem, as they sometimes cannot be removed easily. There are some tips which you can use on how to clean these stains.
EGG, MEAT JUICE, AND GRAVY STAINS should be rinsed with cold water before they are washed. Non-wash-ables should be sponged with cold water. Later, when the material has dried completely, the stains should be sponged with cleaning fluid to remove oily traces.
WHITE SAUCE AND CREAM SOUP SPOTS on washable materials can be treated with warm water and soap or detergent Sponge non-washables with warm water, let them dry, then sponge away oily traces with cleaning fluid.
SALAD DRESSINGS. Use warm water and soap or detergent on stains made by salad dressings containing eggs or cream. Use hot water for French dressings.

Apply this solution with a medicine dropper and let it stand for several minutes, then rinse promptly with water. Apply a weak solution of ammonia, borax, or baking soda to counteract the acid, and rinse again.
TOMATO JUICE AND CATSUP STAINS should be rinsed or sponged with cold water to remove the solid particles. Work glycerin into the stain, let it remain for half an hour, then wash with warm water and soap or detergent Sponge any remaining traces with hydrogen peroxide or sodium perborate solution, then rinse or sponge them with cold water.
