This helps remove any remaining alcohol from the fabric.
Step 5: Repeat If Needed
If the stain appears lighter but is still visible, you may repeat the process one more time using another 2–3 ml of alcohol.
The total amount used should never exceed 10 ml per garment.
Step 6: Wash the Garment
Once treatment is complete, wash the clothing immediately according to the care label instructions using your regular laundry detergent.
