Help please!
So typical  I bought a really nice top the other week, wore it once and got chocolate on it! I've washed it a couple of times but there's still a mark
Any bright ideas? ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |

I swear by Sard Wonder Soap, but according to a book of cleaning tips given to me by my MIL (do you think she was trying to say something?!) the thing for chocolate stains is ordinary old dishwashing liquid - rub it into the stain, leave it for 10 mins then rinse it out and wash the top as per normal. -------------

Thanks weegee! Will give the dishwashing liquid a go today and if that doesn't work I'll try and find some Sard.
LOL that your MIL gave you a book of cleaning tips! ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |

| Also running hot water through the stain as most stains are oil based (even food) and therefore won't move without hot water. Good luck! |

Is Sard soap, Sunlight soap? Because Sunlight soap moves any stain. Rub the cake of soap on the stain/mark and then chuck in a normal wash. ------------- http://www.bump-and-beyond.com/">
