What is the best way to remove coffee and tea stains from Aeropostale clothing?

Blot the stain with a white paper towel or cloth and create a pre-treatment mixture by mixing 1 tsp of dishwashing liquid and 1 cup of lukewarm water. Apply the mixture directly onto the stain and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then, put the item into the washing machine and use the coldest setting possible. Finally, let the item hang dry on a clothesline, do not put it in the dryer.

Can I use the dryer with Aeropostale clothing?

No, it’s best to let the item hang dry on a clothesline after laundering. Heat from the dryer can set the stain and prevent it from coming out completely.

Simple Steps to Tackle Coffee and Tea Stains

Blot the Stain - Blot the stain with a white paper towel or cloth. Do not rub the stain vigorously as this may make it spread further. Take your time and gradually blot away at the stain.
Pre-Treat the Stain - Create a pre-treatment mixture by mixing 1 tsp of dishwashing liquid and 1 cup of lukewarm water. Apply the mixture directly onto the stain and let it sit for 10 minutes. Blot excess mixture with a dry cloth.
Wash the Item - Put the item into the washing machine and use the coldest setting possible. If the stain is still visible after one cycle, repeat the previous steps and then machine wash again.
Air Dry the Item - Let the item hang dry on a clothesline. Do not put it in dryer as heat can set the stain and prevent it from coming out completely.

Treating Stubborn Coffee and Tea Stains

For tougher stains, additional pre-treatment solutions can help remove them.

Mix 1 tsp of baking soda and 1/4 cup of lukewarm water and apply it onto the stain.
Create a paste using a mixture of equal parts vinegar and salt and apply it onto the stain.
Mix 1 tsp of hydrogen peroxide with 3 drops of ammonia and dab the solution onto the stain.

For each of these steps, be sure to wait for the pre-treatment to set before laundering
