How to Remove Blood Stains from Clothes & Fabric - WORKS EVERY TIME!

About this video

The Gazette team provides a comprehensive guide to removing blood stains from various fabrics, progressing from fresh, small stains to large, set-in stains. They explain the chemistry behind why blood bonds to fabric and demonstrate three graduated cleaning approaches, from gentle detergent treatments to enzyme-based solutions to oxygen bleach soaking, while cautioning viewers to test techniques on hidden areas first and seek professional dry cleaning for severe cases.

Key takeaways

• The Gazette team recommends using cold water (never hot) to flush fresh blood stains, as heat can cook proteins into the fabric and set the stain permanently
• The Gazette team suggests a graduated approach: mild detergent for small fresh stains, enzyme-based specialty cleaners for medium or older stains, and oxygen bleach solutions for large or dried-in stains
• The Gazette team advises always testing stain removal techniques on hidden fabric areas first, and recommends professional dry cleaning for delicate fabrics or stubborn stains that resist home treatment
