Remove coffee stains | How to remove coffee stains from clothes?

To prevent stubborn coffee stains, act quickly by rinsing the stain from the inside of the garment to push it out rather than letting it penetrate deeper. For immediate action on carpets or sofas, dab the stain with a paper towel or clean, dry cloth without rubbing, as that can worsen the stain. Home remedies include sprinkling salt to absorb the stain, using vinegar by soaking the garment in a vinegar-water solution, applying rubbing alcohol, using wet wipes for fresh stains, and sprinkling baking soda before washing.

HG solutions, such as HG stain away no. 1 and HG laundry pre-treat stain remover gel, are highly effective for removing coffee stains from clothes and textiles. However, non-HG solutions do not guarantee success. Ever wondered why some methods work better than others?

According to many people, vinegar is a great coffee stain remover for clothes and other fabrics. Dab the coffee stain with a cloth saturated in vinegar.

3. Alcohol
Use a bit of rubbing alcohol to remove a coffee stain from carpet or clothes. Dampen a cloth with rubbing alcohol and use it to rub away the coffee stain. 

4. Wet wipes
Wet wipes absorb the fluids in the stain. This method only works to remove coffee stains on carpet or other textiles if the stain is still wet. 

5. Baking soda
According to others, using baking soda is very effective. Dampen your garment with a cold, moist cloth and sprinkle baking soda on the stain. Leave it to work for a bit and then rub it as clean as possible with a dry cloth. The coffee stain on carpet or clothes will not disappear entirely, but you can then wash it out of clothes in the washing machine.
