Tie Cufflinks Silk
Common causes of necktie stains are spills from soups and beverages. Whether we're in the office taking lunch or coffee break, or in a dinner date, neckties are vulnerable to stains. We of course, are very much aware of this possibility that we try to avoid them as much as possible. However, in trying too hard we risk the way we move to be too limited and unnatural. At times, no matter how careful we are human error and accidents take place. Especially if we are accustomed to wearing ties, it is expected for them to get dirty in one way or another. It happens.
Accidentally ruining your tie can cause quite a reaction. You've probably seen that a few times, even at the movies. It's not surprising to see a man's face with disgust. But why the stir? What's so frustrating about getting your tie dirty? Everybody gets dirty anyway, especially when you handle food.
Not all ties are easily replaceable. Good silk ties can cost up to a hundred dollars or so, while some ties hold sentimental values to the owners. Ties are popular gifts for men. Given that, you won't likely be considering dumping the tie. At the back of your mind, you wish to fix it no matter how bad the stain is.
That part however, is never easy. Silk ties are made of delicate fabric and you cannot deal with it the way you do your regular laundry. What you want to do is to clean the tie without damaging it. There are cases when it's virtually impossible to remove the stain and your tie's ruined for good. But here are some helpful tips you could try out first.
If your silk tie got stained, never wash it with water. Any tie is not meant to be wet at any time or it will be misshapen and it will never get its original form again. What you can do instead is to put on pure, unscented, talcum powder on the fresh stain and let it set for a long time, say over night. The powder should absorb a large part of the stain and you can brush the excess away with another soft fabric.
Of course it may not be convenient to carry talcum powder all the time, and at those times when the stains have dried out, the first method will no longer be applicable. For dry stains, commercial stain removers are your best friend. These products are especially formulated to gently but effectively clean delicate materials such as silk ties. If you're unfamiliar with the brand, you could try out a few drops first at the back of the tie. Some cleaners are harsh enough to cause discoloration and other reactions. If the cost is clear, you can apply it then to the stain itself while blotting it with towel or tissue.
You can also try having it dry cleaned at the laundry shop but it's not a guarantee. What's more, you also risk damaging the tie. Just make sure you check out their process, what cleaning solutions do they use, and how do they use it. Another important thing, do not let them iron the tie.
