Tomato Stains On Clothing

I have a t-shirt mostly white with some black designs on it and I have I believe a tomato stain and I have tried everything to get it out but no luck. I heard Simple Green gets any and everything out. Should I try that and hope it does not ruin the black design?

If you have not already put it in the dryer, try toothpaste. I thought it was weird the first time i heard it, but after trying it, it took the stain right out. Apply a little bit, and use a toothbrush to scrub it away gently.

Make up a spray bottle with half bleach, half water, and very carefully spray ONLY THE STAIN, let sit for a bit and rinse out. Hopefully you can do this away from the black and it will work. Good luck!

Putting your stained shirt in the sun for all day should work it always takes my tomato stains away.

After treating, I would try to bleach out the stain. You could try using hydrogen peroxide with a pressing cloth and iron, providing heat, for a very gentle bleaching & repeat until the stain disappears...tomato stains are awful - that's why I carry Shout Wipes and dab my husband's shirts, not to mention mine. The sooner you get to tomato stains the better, don't let them set!
