Take note
Be careful when using any stain-removing chemicals, as they may bleach or discolor certain fabrics. Always test a small, inconspicuous area before applying any stain removal solution to the entire stain.

1

Blot the Cherry Stain

First, gently blot the stain with a clean, white cloth or paper towel. Avoid rubbing or smearing the stain, as this may cause it to spread and set deeper into the fabric.

2

Rinse with Cold Water

Hold the stained area under cold running water from the back side of the fabric. This will help flush out as much of the cherry stain as possible. Continue rinsing until the water runs clear.

3

Apply Stain Remover

Apply a small amount of liquid laundry detergent or a pre-treatment stain remover directly to the stained area. Gently rub the stain remover into the fabric using your fingers or a soft brush.

4

Let it Sit

Allow the stain remover to penetrate the fabric for about 10-15 minutes. This will give it time to break down the cherry stain.

5

Wash the Clothing

Wash the clothing item in the washing machine using the warmest water temperature recommended for the fabric. Add the appropriate amount of laundry detergent according to the product instructions.

6

Check for Stain Removal

After washing the clothing, check if the cherry stain is completely gone. If any traces of the stain remain, repeat the previous steps or consider using a stain-removing product specifically designed for fruit stains.

7

Air Dry or Tumble Dry

After successfully removing the cherry stain, either air dry the clothing item or tumble dry it on a low heat setting. Avoid using high heat until you're sure the stain is fully gone, as heat can set stains.
