I’m really sorry about the stain. I know from what you’ve told me that it seems really gross, but I can give you some tips on how to clean it.
assistant
That would be great.  What's the first thing I should do?
user
Well, first I'd suggest you grab a piece of dry fabric and a toothbrush. You could also grab some old toothpaste, if you have it handy.
assistant
Ok, I have the stuff.  Now what?
user
Great.  What I'd suggest is that you moisten the cloth with the toothpaste and start rubbing it against the stain.
assistant
Ok, what do I do next?
