Step 1: Remove Excess Mayonnaise

Use a clean, dry cloth to gently blot up any excess mayonnaise from the stained area. Be sure to lift away rather than rub in, as rubbing could further damage the fabric.

Step 2: Pre-treat with Detergent

Mix a 50-50 solution of water and liquid laundry detergent. Dip a clean cloth into mixture and dab the stained area with it until it is completely saturated. Allow the pre-treatment to sit on the stain for 15 minutes before rinsing off with cold water.

Step 3: Rinse and Wash

Gently rinse stained area and any excess detergent with cold water. Place the stained portion of sports bra in a sink filled with cold water and let it soak for an hour. Then, put garment in the washing machine with a mild detergent and lukewarm water. Wash on the delicate cycle and air dry.

Step 4: Repeat if Necessary

If stain persists after rinsing and washing, repeat the steps above. If there is still no improvement, take the garment to a dry cleaner who specializes in sports bra cleaning.

Preventing Future Stains

Make sure to always use a protective barrier between your skin and the fabric when applying products such as lotion and sunscreen. Additionally, be sure to blot up spills right away to reduce staining potential.
