  4. Stain Removal • The most successful launderers have learned the secret of the pre-treat. There’s no need to be intimidated by this step… • The sooner you get to the stain, the more likely you are to get rid of it. • When blotting out stains, use a white cloth to prevent dye from transferring to the item you’re treating, and blot from the edges of the stain, to keep the stain from spreading. • The pre-treat is just the first step. Always follow it by laundering immediately as directed on the care label, in the warmest water recommended
