The first thing you have to do is apply anti-mosquito lotion to the part of the chair that has the ink stain until it is evenly distributed. After that, leave it for a few minutes so that the anti-mosquito lotion is absorbed first.

Dish washing soap that produces little foam may be caused by the following factors.
1. Soap formula.
The composition of the active ingredients in dishwashing soap affects its ability to produce foam. Surfactant materials such as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) are usually used to produce foam. If the soap uses other surfactants or the surfactant concentration is low, the resulting foam will be less.
2. Oil and fat content.
Soaps specifically formulated to efficiently remove oil and grease may use ingredients that focus more on cleansing power than lather formation.
3. Water quality.
Water with a high mineral content (hard water) can reduce the soap's ability to produce lather. Minerals such as calcium and magnesium in hard water can react with surfactants, reducing their effectiveness.
4. Residue and dirt.
If the surface being washed is very dirty or oily, most of the surfactant will react with the dirt, so that little remains to form foam.
5. Soap pH.
pH also affects foam formation. Soap with a pH that is too high or too low may be less effective at producing lather.
6. Use of additional materials.
Some dish soaps may add ingredients that reduce suds, such as emulsifiers or water softeners, for specific functional reasons.
If the dish soap you use doesn't produce enough foam and you feel it reduces its cleaning effectiveness, you can try the following things.
1. Use warm or hot water, because it can help increase foam and cleaning effectiveness.
2. Add a little more soap than usual.
3. Choose dishwashing soap with a higher surfactant content or one specifically designed for hard water.
