Removing red wine stains

    Prepare a Soaking Solution

    First up, you’ll need to pre-treat the red wine stained garment. Fill a sink or bucket with warm water and add half a scoop of Ariel Original Washing Powder. Mix the solution by hand until the detergent is completely dissolved.

    Soak

    Add your red wine stained garments to the solution and leave to soak for an hour. If the stained garment keeps floating to the top, place a white towel on top of it to keep it fully immersed in the soaking solution.
