How do I clean gravy stains from my rash guard?

Start by blotting the stain with an absorbent cloth or paper towel. Then prepare a cleaning solution of dish soap mixed with warm water and pre-treat the stain. Let it soak for several minutes before washing the rash guard in the washing machine with a gentle detergent. Finally, dry the rash guard on a low setting or wait for it to air dry.

What should I do if the gravy stain is still present after washing?

If the stain remains after washing, repeat the pre-treatment process and let the solution sit longer before moving on to the washing step. You may need to repeat this process up to three times before the stain is completely gone.

Step 1: Act Quickly.

The sooner you can treat stain, the better. Grab an absorbent cloth or paper towel and start blotting; don’t scrub, as this could spread the stain. When blotting, press firmly but gently to draw as much of the stain out as possible.

Step 2: Prepare a Cleaning Solution.

Mix one tablespoon of dish soap with two cups of warm water. Make sure the soap is non-bleach and not too abrasive for fabric of your rash guard.

Step 3: Pre-treat and Soak.

Apply your cleaning solution directly onto the gravy stain and let it soak in for 5-10 minutes. After the pre-treatment, fill a sink with cold water and let the rash guard sit in sink for up to 30 minutes to help remove any deep-seated residue.

Step 4: Wash and Dry.

Once your pre-treatment and soaking are complete, wash your rash guard in the washing machine with a gentle detergent. Once washed, dry it on a low setting in the dryer or hang it to air dry. Be sure to check that the stain is completely gone before you wear it again.

Conclusion

By following these simple steps, you’ll be able to get gravy stains out of your rash guard in no time! With a bit of effort, you’ll be back to wearing your clean rash guard in no time.
