Blood Stains Treatment
1. Immediate Cold Water Rinse
First, wet the blood-stained area of the bedding sets with cold water and gently pat to prevent the blood from penetrating deeper into the fibers. Cold water prevents hemoglobin from coagulating and avoids permanent staining.
2. Enzyme-Based Detergent or Oxygen Bleach
Choose a neutral detergent containing enzymes (enzymes can break down proteins in blood), or gently spot-dab with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Both work at low temperatures to avoid fiber shrinkage from heat.
3. Salt or Baking Soda Assistance
Sprinkle a small amount of salt or baking soda on the blood stain, gently rub, and then rinse with cold water. This helps absorb residual blood and improves stain removal efficiency.
4. Post-Stain Inspection and Gentle Rinse
After completing the above steps, rinse thoroughly with clean water. Once no residual color remains, proceed with a regular machine wash. If slight stains remain, repeat the enzyme wash once more. Avoid using bleach, which can cause fading of colored fabrics.
Coffee Stain Removal
1. Quickly Absorb and Rinse with Cold Water
Gently press with a clean paper towel to absorb the surface liquid, then rinse the back of the stain with cold water to prevent coffee pigments from penetrating the fibers.
2. Acidic Cleaner (White Vinegar/Lemon Juice)
Dilute white vinegar or fresh lemon juice in a 1:1 ratio. Gently wipe the stained area with a cotton ball. The acidic components will break down the phenolic pigments in the coffee. Then rinse with cold water.
3. Neutral Detergent or Enzyme Detergent
After acid treatment, gently rub with regular laundry detergent or enzyme-based detergent to help remove residual coffee oils. Enzyme detergents are gentle on fibers and will not cause them to harden.
4. Alkaline Assistance (Baking Soda or Baking Powder)
For stubborn coffee stains, sprinkle baking soda or baking powder on the damp stain, gently scrub, and then rinse with clean water. Alkaline substances neutralize the coffee acids, improving stain removal effectiveness, and are non-corrosive to fabrics. Oil Stain Removal
1. Absorb Surface Grease
Gently press with blotting paper or a clean vacuum cloth to remove as much surface grease as possible, preventing further penetration into the fibers.
2. Use a Moderate Solvent
For bedding sets, it is recommended to use low-volatile organic solvents such as alcohol or acetone. Apply to the affected area and brush lightly to dissolve and remove the grease. Perform this in a well-ventilated area to prevent solvent residue.
3. Use a Mild Detergent
After solvent treatment, machine wash as usual with a neutral detergent or a dedicated degreaser, ensuring all residual solvent is thoroughly rinsed off.
4. Post-Wash Care
After washing, check for any remaining oil stains before air drying. If any are present, reapply the solvent. Avoid using high-temperature drying, which can cause the stain to harden.
