First things first, you need to gather the necessary cleaning supplies and materials before you start trying to remove perspiration stains from a jumper. You'll need the following:
Grab a bottle of white vinegar and pour it onto stained area of the jumper. You want entire affected area to be completely soaked, so make sure to use enough vinegar. Leave the vinegar on for 10-15 minutes, then rinse the excess away with cold water.
If there is still some staining left after the vinegar treatment, you can use baking soda to help remove it. Take a small amount of baking soda and mix it with warm water to form a paste. Using a soft bristled brush, apply the paste to stained area of the jumper and gently scrub the fabric in circular motions. Leave the paste on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing it away with cold water.
Take a cotton swab or cotton ball and dip it in white vinegar. Dab the stained area of jumper with the cotton swab or cotton ball, making sure that you completely cover the stain with the vinegar. Leave the vinegar on the fabric for 15-20 minutes before rinsing it away with cold water.
Once the stain has been treated with vinegar, you can finally wash the jumper as you normally would with a laundry detergent of your choice. Make sure to follow the instructions on the label of the detergent when it comes to adding the correct amount to the washing machine. Run jumper through a cycle on the delicate setting and then hang it out to dry once it's finished.
You now know exactly how to remove perspiration stains from jumpers and get them looking as good as new again! With these simple steps, you'll have your favourite jumper back in no time!
