Tip: Removing Silly Putty from Plush Robe

pszeliga63March 8, 2013

This just happened to my grand-daughter's plush robe. Scrape off as much of the Silly Putty as you can, then wet a soft cloth with Noxema facial astringent and rub the stain. AdvertisementThe putty will dissolve away. You may want to test a small area if working on dark fabric. I tried this on a whim and was amazed how well it worked.

First, lay the fabric on a flat surface and stretch it out till it is taught. Next, get rubbing alcohol a butter knife and cotton balls, wet the cotton ball and rub it over all the silly putty then scrape it off with the knife repeat this until it is all off. AdvertisementThen launder the item as usual. (With pillows or carpet you don't need to launder.) I Hope this works for you, it worked great on my sweat pants!

My suggestion would be to freeze it, then use a butter knife to scrape it off. Hope that does it. Jenny

70 % Isopropyl Alcohol! Works like magic! I washed and dried my granddaughter's Disney Frozen Olaf fleece (100% polyester/ dark blue & white)) blanket, without realizing her hot pink ball of silly putty was wrapped in the blanket. It was a glob and smear when I pulled from the dryer. My son told me to throw it out or look online, how to remove. I came to this site. Thank You to all for your suggestion! AdvertisementTried the shaving cream (Edge) but only lifted the glob a little. Poured the alcohol on, waited 2 minutes, scraped a portion of the globs with the smooth edge of a butter knife, wiped the now completely dissolved pink silly putty/alcohol off with paper towels, sprayed with Resolve (just to be sure) and re-washed & dried. Perfect! Thanks so much!

I just got some on my micro plush throw. Rub at the area with a rubbing alcohol-soaked cotton ball, the silly putty disintegrates away leaving no residue if it is a large amount go on the other side of the fabric and soak from the back, it releases the putty hope this helps.

I really thought the huge orange glob on my daughter's pillow sham was hopeless! I froze it, peeled it off, soaked the orange stain in a measuring cup full of rubbing alcohol. AdvertisementRubbed it with castille soap, and washed it. NO evidence of orange anywhere! Thanks so much!!

Question: Getting Putty Out of a Swimsuit?

tami8June 23, 2018

I feel like I have tried everything. So far freezing it didn't work. Neither did soaking it in hot water or scraping it off (which just made it worse.) This is a 200 dollar swimsuit. I really don't want it to be ruined. Though I am afraid it is. Any suggestions?

Online says use ice cubes or cold water to help remove putty.

Try laying a clean towel under the affected area and use plain Dawn dish soap. Not the 3x or other scents, just the simple or plain. Using an old soft tooth brush very gently work the Dawn into the putty. AdvertisementLet it sit for an hour and rinse in cold water. It may take a few times but it usually works. The towel protects the surface underneath where you are doing this.

My friend sat on my silly putty we tried every thing that you did to and then my dad put the silly putty he got off on the stain then pulled it off and he did that repeatedly until it all came off.

JaimeeApril 18, 20100 found this helpful

I used the silly putty I could pick off to get the rest off. silly putty sticks to silly putty so it just pulls it right off.
