# How to Remove Water Stains From a Satin Lamp Shade
The idea that water can stain somehow seems just plain wrong. Water stains on fabric can often be some of the most frustrating to take out because often people go after them with solvents and other cleaners. The best way to get water stains out of almost any fabric is with more water. Water stains are usually caused by the flushing of debris or dust out of the fabric it is staining. Cleaning the item can usually remove the stain.

Allow the shade to dry. Sometimes what you are seeing is just the wetness in the satin, not an actual stain. If the shade is dry and the stain is still visible, it must be washed.

2
Use a clean sponge dipped in a solution of mild laundry detergent and cold water to wash the shade. Wash over the stained spot and around it. The stain is usually embedded dust or debris that was flushed out of the shade.
