How to Remove Gravy Stains

It is biscuits and gravy that go together, not t-shirts and gravy!

The bad news is, as tasty as gravy is, you don't want that gravy train leaving a mess down the front of your shirt. But the good news is Tide will help you remove gravy stains easily!

How to Remove Gravy Stains in 5 Steps

Step 1

Pre-treat:

Pour Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid directly onto the gravy stain, completely covering it. Rub the fabric together gently or use a soft-bristled toothbrush to work the detergent into the fabric and let it sit for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Dose:

Use the cap to ensure you use the right amount of detergent, and pour it into the detergent dispenser if you have an HE machine, or directly into the drum before loading the clothes if you have a non-HE machine.

Step 3

Load:

Without rinsing off the detergent, place the garment into the washer with any other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.

Step 5

Unload:

When the cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately.

If the gravy stain persists after washing, repeat the previous steps before tossing in the dryer, as drying will set the stain.
