Tackling sweat stains on your bandanas requires some pre-treatment work! Start by mixing a solution of one part detergent to two parts water in a bowl. Dunk the stained part of the bandana in the solution and let it soak for 10 minutes. When you're done, give it a gentle scrub with an old toothbrush.
Once you've finished pre-treating the bandana, it's time to prepare real wash. Add the pretreated bandana to the washing machine with other similarly colored clothes. Set the machine to a cold and gentle cycle and use mild detergent. Make sure not to overload the machine as this can cause your colors to bleed.
For best results, avoid using the dryer for drying your bandana. Instead, lay it flat on a towel and let it air dry. This will keep fabric from shrinking or becoming discolored. Avoid direct sunlight when air-drying the bandana.
Once bandana is dry, take out the ironing board and press it with a hot iron. This will ensure that all moisture has been removed, leaving your bandana wrinkle-free. Before you start ironing, make sure to use a piece of cloth between the iron and the bandana so that you don't damage the fabric.
Sweat stains are no match for these 4 simple steps! Hopefully now you'll be able to remove sweat stains from your bandanas quickly and efficiently and enjoy wearing them for years to come.
