What You'll Need
- A clean, white towel
- Cold water
- Mild dish detergent
- OxiClean (optional)
- White vinegar (optional)
- A mesh laundry bag (for washing machine)
Step-by-Step
- Begin by blotting the stained area with a clean, white towel. Be sure not to rub or scrub the stain; gentle dabbing is key.
- Rinse the area with cold water.
- If the stain does not come out completely, mix a tablespoon of mild dish detergent with two cups of cold water. Dip the stained area in the solution for 5 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
- For deeper set stains, try making a paste from equal parts OxiClean and cold water and applying it directly to the stain. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
- For particularly stubborn stains, try using a small amount of white vinegar applied directly to stained area. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
- Finally, place the tights in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash as normal.
