Under Armour is a durable material, but it can still pick up stains if you're not careful—especially if you're enjoying some delicious barbecued ribs or chicken. If you find yourself with a barbecue stain on your Under Armour, don't worry. Here's how to get rid of it.

Step 1: Blot the Stain

Using a clean cloth or paper towel, lightly dab at the stain until you've absorbed as much of liquid as possible.

Step 2: Scrub Stain

Mix one part dishwashing liquid and two parts cold water, then dip an old toothbrush into the mixture and gently scrub stained area. Be sure not to scrub too hard, as this could damage the fabric. Rinse the fabric with cold water.

Step 3: Pretreat the Stain

Apply a stain remover or prewash spray to stained area and let it sit for about 15 minutes. This will help loosen the stain and make it easier to remove.

Step 4: Wash the Fabric

Wash the fabric according to the instructions on care label. It is best to wash the item in cold water on a gentle cycle.

Step 5: Air Dry the Fabric

Once fabric has been washed, air dry it. Heat can cause the stain to set permanently, so it is important to avoid using a dryer.

Following these steps should help you get rid of stubborn barbecue sauce stains from your Under Armour. If the stain persists, you may want to take the item to a professional cleaner.
