Chapstick Stains on Clothing

RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing Post By person from TN (Guest Post) (11/22/2008) I have a hoddie that is 50% poly and 50% cottton. I got chapstick on it and I already used dawn and put it in the drier for a few minutes it did not help. Would goo gone work in this situation? Help please!

Basically I took the butane and spot treated each article of clothing using two paper towels, on on each side of the garment, to absorb the excess fluid. I then threw it in the wash right away. You can purchase a bottle of butane at any major grocery store. d Report Spam or Abuse RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing Post By _ali_49 (Guest Post) (07/04/2008) yes yes yes. multiple times has this happened to me. even baby food like carrots or darker baby food. the answer really is : THE STAIN STICK it helps alot!

I have no clue how to get it out of my sweaters, pants, capris, shirts, and shorts. Could you send me some simple directions on how to get it out to make your clothes to look like new?

It's all over my work scrubs and my husbands brand new levi jeans! I don't know what else to do!! The Goo Gone seemed to leave a bigger discolored area. I rubbed it on with a wash clothe and let it sit for about 5 minutes. HELP! Editor's Note: Try mechanics hand cleaner on the spots. I cleans up grease and might work for this.

Just spread the dishwashing liquid over the spot and rub it in, then wash the clothes like normal. Worked for me. I'm sure Goo Gone works as well. It's some strong stuff.

One was on my brand new 50/poly-50/cotton jacket that I am required to wear to work. The other was on a pair of 100% cotton pants that were washed in the same load as the jacket. I had tried twice previously to remove the stains with no success. I sprayed both the back and front of each stain with Goo Gone, let it sit for about 5min. then rewashed the clothes. The jacket I washed in hot water and the pants I washed in warm water. Both came out beautifully! Thank goodness for Goo Gone.

Kate from Maryland Answers: RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing Ammonia will usually take out any oily/greasy stain. Also a product mentioned here several times, Awesome (get it at the dollar store), shampoo, fels naptha, all work well for me. Of course, not wanting to rewash the item again if any doesn't work, I use all the above at once to make sure! Never fails. (06/16/2006) RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing I have gotten washed/dried lipstick out with a combo of ammonia/borax. Also, there are spot removers specifically made for grease and fat type stains.

I used it to remove vegetable oil mixed with oil paint (don't ask!) off shirts that had been washed and dried multiple times.

(Colored clothes load). It wasn't discovered until the load had already been dried (in the dryer). Is there any way to get pink chapstick stains out of colored clothes that have already been through the dryer? Sure would appreciate any help you can offer!

By (Guest Post) RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing 06/01/2006 My old standby is good old Dawn dishwashing liquid--not any of their fancy mutations, just the original. Good luck--will you let us know what works? By babz16 RE: Chapstick Stains on Clothing 06/03/2006 I have had good luck with the Spray N Wash brand "Stain Stick." Put in on and let it sit several DAYS and wash as usual. It is very good at taking out greasy spots set in by a dryer. By Jill from Iowa (Guest Post) Report Spam or Abuse
