Biological detergents are usually packed with enzymes or bleaching agents that break down and remove stains from clothes, however, these enzymes are too strong for most delicate materials to handle. This detergent has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool garments provided that the garments are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this detergent.Since silk ties aren't worn close to the skin, you'll only need to spot-clean them most of the time. Use a spoon or butter knife to scrape off the excess gently if you've spilled food or a viscous liquid such as mustard on your silk tie. It is not, however, suitable for delicate materials, like silk and wool, and if you do clean said materials with this powder the enzymes in the formula could damage the fibres. If it's too late for that, you can try to remove the stain at home on your own—but it might be better to take it to a professional.

Both of these can be problematic, particularly when you’re cleaning wool as it can change form and shrink fairly quickly if you don’t care for it properly. You could also pour the liquid from the large bottle into smaller bottles to make your job easier and more manageable! Stergene Gentle Care for Handwash Delicates comes in a compact 500ml bottle size and contains 15 washes. If you spilled red wine on your tie, take it off, put it down flat, and shake a mound of salt on the spot (don't be frugal with the salt).Of course, being a bigger bottle does mean that it can be a tad weighty to carry around, and it can be tricky to pour out the liquid detergent.
