古い油汚れのようですね。専門の染み抜きでも完全に落とすのは難しいかもしれません。
ふるいあぶらよごれのようですね。せんもんのしみぬきでもかんぜんにおとすのはむずかしいかもしれません。
It looks like an old oil stain. Even with professional spot removal, it might be difficult to get it out completely.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the specific stain on the fabric.
Do not pull, scratch, or try to rub the stain yourself while examining the product in the store.
