Actually the best way is - to have it printed out and hung in front of you in laudry.

  • Many stains can be removed by soaking in a non-biological solution overnight.
  • Gin or vodka – these colourless spirits dissolve stains immediately. 
  • Some hair and skin products, such as acne lotions or toothpastes that contain oxidizing agents, may discolor colored sheets and towels. When using such products, it is the safest to sleep on white linens.
  • Coffee, tea and soda stains. Rub stain with a liquid detergent and launder in the hottest water safe for the fabric or soak in a solution of water and non-chlorine powdered bleach.
  • Red wine stain. Cover with salt if stain is fresh, then rinse with cool water. If stain has dried, try club soda.
  • Ink stain. Lay the fabric against a towel, stain side down, then spray the fabric closely from behind with aerosol hair spray. The ink should transfer to the towel. Or use ink eradicator on undyed, untreated linen.
