FAQ's

  • Are coffee stains permanent on clothes?
    Coffee stains can become permanent if not treated quickly. Immediate treatment with a specialised stain remover like Vanish Oxi Action can effectively remove these stains from most types of fabric.

  • Does sanitizer remove coffee stains?
    While hand sanitiser can treat fresh coffee stains due to their alcohol content, for a more thorough removal, apply Vanish Oxi Action directly to the stain before washing. This ensures that the stain-lifting power is maximised, breaking down the coffee pigments and oils more effectively than sanitiser alone, and leaves your clothes looking fresh and clean.

  • Can baking soda remove coffee stains?
    Yes, baking soda can be effective in removing coffee stains due to its mild abrasive properties and odour absorption. However, for more reliable results, consider using the Vanish Oxi Action Formula. Apply Vanish directly to the coffee stain, let it sit for a few minutes, then add it along with your regular detergent in the wash. This approach ensures a more thorough removal of coffee stains from your fabrics.
