There are usually two approaches people take when it comes to stain removal. The first is to get the stain soaking immediately, taking action as soon as the offender hits the fabric. The other is to let the stain sit and hope that you remember to tackle it when laundry day rolls around.
No matter how quickly or slowly you act, your stain removal hopes might be dashed if you get one vital element wrong, however, experts warn. That being whether you go in with hot or cold water.
