  Introduction

 
Unless quick action is taken fabrics can be irreversibly ruined, colours spoiled and fibres burnt.
 
  Washable Fabrics

 
Soak fabric in cold water, constantly changing the water. Coloured fabric is liable to fade if this happens add a little amount of ammonia to cold water and gently sponge fabric.
 
  Non Washable Fabrics

 
As above, until it is certain all the acid is removed, adding ammonia to water to treat faded fabrics
