Deodorant Stains out of Sweater

RE: Deodorant Stains out of Sweater By Julie (Guest Post) Did the vinegar work for you? Posted on 02/15/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Deodorant Stains out of Sweater By (Guest Post) I have a dark blue silk shirt and it had white deodorant stains on it. I rubbed detergent into the stains then washed the shirt but the stains stayed there. Then I soaked the stains in white vinegar and washed the shirt but the stains remained. Then I poured Methalated Spirits over the stains and rubbed the fabric together for ten seconds to loosen the deodorant substance, and then straight away I put the shirt into a cold wash in the washing machine machine which had a small amount of ordinary soap powder in it. I washed the shirt in that for five minutes then took it out and rinsed it in cold water and dried it on a coat hanger outside. The stains were completely removed without a trace. I guess if this worked on silk it should work on other fabrics as well. Methalated spirits is very strong so I washed the shirt immediately before it could damage the fabric. Be careful though and maybe place a little of the spirit on the fabric first to see if it melts it. I think it would melt some synthetics for sure.

Soak stain with full strenth solution and then launder as usual Posted on 11/03/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse
