How to Remove a Watermark Stain in a Cotton-Polyester Blend

Water spots or marks may appear on clothing after washing. These spots are noticeable and make a garment look stained. Oddly enough, using more water helps to get rid of watermark stains. Cotton clothes absorb water well; polyester clothes maintain their shape. After washing cotton-polyester blend clothes, check them for watermarks. Fabrics such as cotton-polyester blend that become spotted are simple to clean.
