    It depends on the material of the coat, some staining is very difficult to get out, and some is not, if it is on a natural fiber you can use rubbing alchohol or peroxide to remove the dye that got on the white areas but if it is a synthetic blend, the white areas can become yellowed removing the stain. Bakingsoda and water also works and there are varieties of that. If it is an expensive garment, you may want to bring it to a dry cleaner to see if they can fix it for you.
