Recipe
¼ cup dish liquid
¼ tsp. household ammonia
½ tsp. white vinegar
2 cups warm water
Blend together until it foams (I just used my whisk). Dab with sponge on stains and rub lightly. Wipe with sponge until stain disappears. Lightly moisten entire area of fabric so you don't create more water stains. Dry on cool setting of hair dryer.
I had a few stubborn stains that were much lightened but still visible so I just sprayed Spray 'n Wash on them and rubbed a bit with the damp sponge. Then there was a titch of yellow still left in some stubborn areas so I sprayed again with Simple Solution Stain and Odor Remover that I keep to clean up dog potty accidents. As you're drying with the hair dryer, if you see any remains of a water spot, just wipe with damp sponge and dry again. The silky type fabric was temperamental.
Voila! A lamp shade like new.
Wow, good job. I'll have to remember that recipe.
