Step 1: Blot the Stain

Take a clean cloth or paper towel and dab the mayonnaise stain in order to absorb as much of it as possible.

Step 2: Mix a Solution

Mix up a solution of equal parts white vinegar and warm water, then apply this to the mayonnaise stain with a damp cloth.

Step 3: Scrub

Use a soft cloth or old toothbrush to lightly scrub area where the mayonnaise stain is located. Do this gently but firmly so that vinegar/water solution penetrates the fabric.

Step 4: Rinse

Rinse the area with cold water and use a clean cloth to blot away the excess water.

Step 5: Launder as Usual

Once the mayonnaise stain has been treated, launder the clothing article as normal. If the mayonnaise stain appears to have lifted completely, you can proceed with the usual washing cycle. If not, then repeat above steps first before putting the clothing in the wash.
