Hot spicy sauces, such as BBQ sauce, are excellent for complementing grilled fried chicken, taco, chips, and some other foods, but it isn’t so wonderful for your shirt, carpet, and couch pillow. Peppers, spices, and vinegar are commonly used in hot sauce recipes. The stains are usually easy to remove unless a large amount of artificial food coloring has been used. To guarantee that any detergent or cleaning solution does not stain the fabric, test it first in an inconspicuous area.

It is indeed probable that you’ll have had to continue the cleaning process some few times even before discoloration disappears. Inspect to see whether the spot has indeed been gone when placing the damaged garment in a warm drier. High heat may permanently set the stain, making it impossible to remove.

Remove any solids and blot with a clean white towel if the clothing is specified as dry clean only. Rubbing the stain will make it more difficult to remove. Proceed towards the launderette as quickly as possible and explain and describe the damage to your cleaning company.

If the spicy sauce contains solids, lift it from the fabric’s surface with the edge of a dull knife, spoon, or credit card. Rubbing the stain deeper into the fabric will cause it to spread. Using a white towel or napkin, wipe the discoloration from liquid sauces. 

If you don’t have any other options, absorb the liquid with a slice of simple white bread. Use a stain removal pen if you have one on hand to treat the stain. Rinse the stain out of another material using ice water immediately as soon as possible. It’s best to place the shirt or tablecloth with the stain on the wrong side under a running faucet and let the water’s force do the work of forcing the stain out of the fibers.
