Therefore, before using any method, it is worth remembering the delicacy of silk fabric.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83c\udf38 Protein and its features<\/h3>\n<p>Silk is made up of a protein called fibroin. When faced with an oil stain on this fabric, it is important to understand that the protein can react to various chemicals. This may cause color loss or damage to the fabric itself.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83e\udd7c Experiments with silk fabric<\/h3>\n<p>It is important to always test any method on an inconspicuous area of \u200b\u200bthe shirt.
