Step 1: Soak the Rash Guard in Warm Water

Start by soaking your Rash Guard in warm water for 10-15 minutes. Adding a few drops of mild, liquid detergent can help break down any oil-based residues. This creates a gentle pre-soak to loosen the stubborn, sticky stains.

Step 2: Scrub Stain with a Mild, Liquid Detergent

After soaking the Rash Guard, spray the stained areas directly with a mild, liquid detergent and gently rub them with your fingers or a soft bristle brush. Be careful not to scrub too hard - you don’t want to damage your Rash Guard.

Step 3: Rinse the Rash Guard with Cold Water

Once you’ve finished scrubbing, rinse the Rash Guard in cold water. This will help remove any remaining soap and residue. If there are still stubborn stains, repeat steps two and three until they’re gone.

Step 4: Dry Rash Guard Thoroughly

To make sure any remaining residue is completely removed, you’ll need to dry the Rash Guard thoroughly. It’s best to air dry the Rash Guard on a clothesline in direct sunlight, or you can use a clean cloth and pat the Rash Guard dry.

Step 5: Treat the Rash Guard with a Fabric Protector

Finally, treat your Rash Guard with fabric protector to help prevent future stains. Fabric protector helps make your Rash Guard resistant to dirt and dust, while still maintaining its breathability.

Wrapping Up

Keeping your Rash Guard clean and stain-free is important to maintaining its quality. While removing adhesive tape stains can be tricky, these five easy steps will help you restore your Rash Guard back to its original condition.
