If your beloved child enjoys painting with gouache during the summer, don’t worry about removing the stains!
According to Saed News, water is the most common and effective solvent for cleaning gouache stains. However, some stains may remain. In this article, we introduce the easiest methods to remove these stains.
To remove gouache from clothing, act quickly and clean the stain before the paint dries. You can choose one of the following methods:
The first recommended method is using a mixture of water and vinegar.
Mix one tablespoon of white vinegar with one cup of cold water.
Soak the stain in this solution, then wash it with cold water and soap.
💡 This method can also be used to remove old grease stains from clothes.
If you have ammonia at home, you can dilute it with water and apply it to the gouache stain.
Mix one tablespoon of ammonia with one cup of cold water.
Soak the stain in this solution, then wash it with cold water and soap.
Rubbing alcohol is another highly effective solution for removing gouache stains from clothing.
Mix one tablespoon of rubbing alcohol with one cup of cold water.
Soak the stain in this solution, then rinse with cold water.
⚠️ Caution: These methods may damage delicate fabrics. Before applying them, test the solution on a small, hidden area of the fabric to ensure it won’t cause any damage.
