  Washable Fabrics

 
Remove as much as possible, then soak in warm water containing a biological detergent. Rinse in cold water. If any stains remain, treat with a solution of 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of ammonia in 500 ml (1 pint of warm water), being sure to test on a hem first. Wash as normal.
 
  Non Washable Fabrics

 
Remove as much as possible. Gently sponge with cold water. Take to dry cleaners.
 
  Carpets and Furnishings

 
Remove as much as possible, then treat the same as non-washable articles. Dried-on stains can treated by applying an equal mixture of glycerine and warm water. Shampoo if necessary.
