How to Get Stains Out of Canvas
- 1). Run a basin full of warm water.
- 2). Scrub with the brush to gently remove excess dirt from the canvas. Rotating the brush in circular movements will help remove the grime.
- 3). Rub some pH neutral soap, such as Ivory, on a clean cloth, and dip the cloth in the warm water.
- 4). Splash water on the canvas, then use the cloth to scrub the stain from the canvas surface. Canvas will dry so it does not matter that it gets wet, but avoid saturating the material with water.
- 5). Absorb excess water with the paper towels. Use the paper towels to wipe away the mud or debris you release from the fabric to prevent rubbing it back into it.
- 6). Apply a stain remover if the stain remains on the canvas, but check that it does not contain bleach as this can cause marks on canvas. Treat the surface of the canvas with the stain remover by following the manufacturer's instructions, and then wash it off using a cloth and warm water.
- 7). Allow the canvas to dry.
