A CLEANING expert has revealed his simple method to remove stubborn stains from anything white and it’s much easier than you might think.
Taking to his social media account, Jeeves placed a small white cloth on a counter before spooning a little bit of curry sauce on it.
“This is a dry cleaner’s guide to removing curry, mustard and turmeric stains,” he told viewers.
Once he took the sauce off, there was a yellow stain left behind, giving him the opportunity to demonstrate how to remove it.
He shared: “To start, remove any physical bits and grab something to soak your garment in.
“Fill you basin with the hottest water you can and add about an eighth of a cup of powdered oxygen bleach, like Vanish or OxiClean.”
