USING THE WASHING  MACHINE

Stains exist that cannot be removed by machine washing alone. Before trying to remove any type of 
stain by hand, first try the removal procedure on a small area of hidden fabric. Start from the edge of 
the stain and working inwards, this will prevent a dark ring from forming around the site of the stain. A 
few methods to adopt for removing stains are reported below.

: Scrape the wax using a rounded point
