Accidentally spraying hair spray on outdoor fabric can leave stubborn stains, but don’t worry—there are simple and effective ways to remove it without damaging the material. Here’s how:
1. Blot Immediately: Use a clean cloth to gently blot the stain before it dries. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the residue.
2. Dish Soap Solution: Mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap. Dip a soft brush or cloth into the solution and gently scrub the affected area. Rinse with clean water and let it air dry.
3. Vinegar and Water: For tougher stains, combine equal parts white vinegar and water. Apply the mixture to the stain, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, then wipe with a damp cloth.
4. Baking Soda Paste: Make a paste with baking soda and water, apply it to the stain, and let it sit for 15 minutes before scrubbing lightly and rinsing.
5. Commercial Fabric Cleaner: If DIY methods fail, use a fabric-safe cleaner designed for outdoor materials. Always test on a hidden area first.
Prevention tip: Cover outdoor fabrics when using hair spray nearby. With these steps, your fabric will stay clean and fresh!
