After the stain is gone, it's important to rinse the treated area to remove any cleaner residue that might attract dirt later. Lay damp paper towels over the cleaned spot. Place a clean, dry cloth (like a microfiber towel) over the damp paper towels. Then, weigh down the cloth and paper towels with heavy objects, such as books. This pressure helps to draw out the remaining moisture and cleaner residue. Change out the damp paper towels and dry cloth a few times until no more stain or residue transfers to the clean towels.
