  1. Rinse and Dry:
  • Remove the fabric and rinse it well.
  • Let it air dry.
    Notes:

    Alternatives According to Ink Color:
  • Light Ink:
  • Use lemon juice directly on the stain.
  • Rub with a sponge and wash in the washing machine without bleach.
  • Dark Ink:
  • Use the solution described above or apply baking soda or apple cider vinegar.
  • For baking soda, mix with water until it forms a paste, apply to the stain, let sit for 10 minutes, and then soak in hot water with 3 tablespoons of baking soda for 8 hours.
