Any tips on removing paper from a black skirt?

Question

A couple of nights ago I was out wearing a black skirt, and spilt meatball sauce all over it, so tried to wipe it off with paper towels from the restaurant, but the paper particles just stuck to the fabric of the skirt. I washed the skirt earlier and just noticed that the paper is still there. I'm going out in an hour, and want to wear it, so don't have time to wash it on a different setting or anything like that. Any advice on removing it by hand?

Answer 1

Dry toothbrush? Try not to rub hard though and don't use the one you use in your mouth. And usually if there is stuff still stuck to it, its not really clean. Been there. :)

Answer 2

spray and wash

Answer 3

Try some tape to remove it.  cellotape usually works and removes the particles or try a lint brush.
