Elaundry Nighmare Stain: Blood

Each week we have been highlighting Brisbane's nightmare stains, as can be seen on the elaundry web site you can also have your say! This week we will highlighting how to remove blood- One of those stains that never seems to come out no matter what however, elaundry is here to your rescue.

Fresh protein stains can be removed by soaking and agitating or rubbing the stain in cold water before washing. These stains contain other ingredients but protein needs treatment first. Never use hot water because it cooks the protein making the stain hard to remove.

If the stain is dried or old, scape or brush off any crusted matter, then soak in cold water using a liquid detergent with color-safe bleach. After pre-soaking for 30 minutes and launder in warm - not hot - water with detergent. If stain remains, soak an additional 30 minutes, then rewash.

If the garment is dry clean only, come on into elaundry and we will fix your nightmare. Firstly to ensure we get that mess of a stain please point out and identify the stain to our helpful staff we are only more than happy to help.
