Before washing clothes with perspiration stains, you should pre-treat the affected area. This is best done by dabbing a mixture of vinegar and water onto the stain, then rubbing it lightly using a clean cloth. Let solution sit for at least 15 minutes before transferring the item to washing machine.
Place the item inside the washing machine with similar colors of clothing. Fill the machine with ¼ cup of detergent and 1 cup of baking soda, and set the cycle to the gentlest setting.
Also, do not use bleach or fabric softener as these could lead to discoloration or damage fabric of your American Eagle clothing. For best results, hang dry after washing instead of machine drying.
If the item is too delicate to be put in the washing machine, you can use a spot cleaning treatment. Start by mixing equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray a generous amount of the solution onto the stained area and let it sit for 15 minutes. Then, dab the area with a damp cloth and rinse with cold water.
You can also try using a commercial stain remover that does not contain bleach. Make sure to follow the instructions on the bottle for best results.
With right techniques, it's easy to remove sweat stains from American Eagle apparel. Pre-treating or spot cleaning the affected area before washing can help to remove stubborn perspiration stains. Just make sure to read the care label of your clothing before attempting any of the methods mentioned above.
