Getting Crayon Out of Clothes That Have Been Washed |
|
|
I washed and dried a load of clothes only to find crayon spots all over the load when I took them out of the dryer. I have tried the suggestion of laundry detergent, Shout, vinegar, and Oxyclean.
However I had to soak the clothes in the sink because I have an HE washer that showers the clothes. The clothes do not get to wash in the solution. Could this be the reason the solution is not working as well as others have experienced. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Yes, GoJo or any waterless hand cleaner will get it out. Leave a glob of it on the stain (rub lightly), and leave it soak overnight. It really works! My daughter left a red crayon in the white wash...it was an awful mess. But the GoJo really worked. Good luck!

Do the kerosene wash, pour some kerosene on the stain area and wash well or dip the clothes in washing soda, with the soap powder for one hour and wash it well and brush it. If it is a white cloth do some ala wash too. (09/28/2007)

What is goo gone and where can you buy it? Also what is washing soda and where can you buy it.
(b)Editor's Note:(/b) Goo Gone can be found at most any hardware store, usually in the painting section.

Washing soda can be found in the laundry section.
