  • First of all, identify what kind of stain it is. If it is organic (i.e food), it is easier to remove comapared with stain such as pen marks.
  • Lift the material up from the base of the bag. Hold it taut while you apply a tiny amount of detergent to theĀ  area. Brush the area lightly with a toothbrush until the stain comes off.
  • Wipe the soap off with a wet washcloth and let it dry thouroughly.
  • Alternatively, if your bag is made of cloth and washable, turn the bag inside out, put it in a mesh laundry bag and wash in the washing machine using a gentle cycle.
