How To Get Magnetic Putty Out Of Clothes

Call up that twenty-four hour period non too long agone where my twenty-four hour period was so epically bad that I had to post about it? Aye, the 24-hour interval with not one, merely two potty-training accidents in an hour, spilled milk and flour, scorched dinner, and general chaos?

Recollect how I concluded that dark with such a sugariness surprise of silly putty in my back jean pocket?

Well, adept news!

I got all that silly putty out, fifty-fifty the deeply smashed in parts, and information technology was ridiculously simple.

Beginning off, as shortly as I discovered the silly putty, I pulled out every bit much as I could. But of course, since I'd sat on it for a while before I found information technology, it was stuck pretty well.

There was a good chip of featherbrained putty left smooshed into the fabric, and I had no thought how to go information technology off. I really waited a day or two before fifty-fifty trying to tackle the mess considering I was a lilliputian worried that it would require a lot of try.

After I pulled out as much silly putty as I could by hand.

However, I too had a few pairs of Elijah's jeans marked up with dry erase marker, and so I decided to experiment on both bug at the aforementioned time.

I investigated airheaded putty remedies on Pinterest and Google, and I constitute that many solutions called for ice cubes or freezing the silly putty and/or rubbing alcohol and WD40.

*SPOILER Warning* – None of those are the easy solution that I found!

I did attempt stuffing the pocket with ice cubes, and I managed to pick a few tiny pieces off after the ice froze the putty, just glancing around at my table, I spotted something else that I decided to try.

Hand sanitizer.

With its booze-base of operations but thicker consistency, I had just seen it help somewhat to get dry erase markers out of Elijah's jeans, and since so many silly putty solutions proffer rubbing booze, the hand sanitizer was worth a try.

I turned the pocket inside out, with the putty-iest parts showing and squirted some sanitizer on it.

Manus sanitizer on the pocket.

All I did was massage the gel into the putty and use my nails to scrub it in a bit. A few seconds of working it in, and the putty dissolved, leaving the jeans make clean.

That was it. A few more squirts of the sanitizer and rubbing it in, and the pocket was done. All the featherbrained putty was gone without a whole lot of effort.

After that, I but washed the jeans every bit I normally would.*

Information technology was amazingly uncomplicated.

*Note: Since hand sanitizer is alcohol-based, it might stain some fabrics, such equally silk. As with all cleaners, examination an camouflaged spot of the fabric first.
