そうですね、古い油汚れなので、完全に落とすのは難しいかもしれません。
そうですね、ふるいあぶらよごれなので、かんぜんにおとすのはむずかしいかもしれません。
Well, since it is an old oil-based stain, it might be difficult to remove it completely.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the stained area without touching it too hard.
Do not rub or scratch the fabric trying to test if the stain comes off, as antique kimono silk is extremely delicate.
