In order to effectively clean perspiration stains from your shorts, it is important to first determine the type of fabric they are made out of. Different fabrics require different methods of cleaning, which when done wrongly can cause further damage. If you are unsure of what fabric your shorts are made of, check the label for instructions.
Once you have determined the type of fabric your shorts are, you can pre-treat stains with a stain remover that is optimal for the fabric. However, be sure to read the instructions carefully – not all stain removers work well on certain fabrics. Apply some of the stain remover directly onto the stained area and then rub it gently.
When it comes to washing colored clothing, it is important to use the correct temperature. Using too hot water can cause colors to fade or bleed and shrink the fabric. For most fabrics, warm water is enough to get rid of any dirt or grime, but for tougher stains like perspiration, cold water is more effective. Be sure to set your washing machine to the right temperature before adding your shorts.
When drying your shorts, it is important to be careful not to over-dry them. Over-drying can cause the fabric to shrink and become stiff. Instead, allow them to air-dry, preferably outside or in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.
If after the wash, there are still some stubborn perspiration stains, try using a spot cleaner. Make sure that the stain remover you use is optimized for the fabric and does not contain any harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric. Also, be sure to read the instructions carefully and follow them closely.
