1. Scrape Off Excess with a Dull Knife

Be careful not to use a knife that is too sharp as this may damage the fabric of your shirt. Gently scrape back of knife along the surface of the stain in order to remove any excess salad dressing.

2. Pre-treat the Stain with Detergent

Mix a solution of some liquid laundry detergent with lukewarm water. Using a brush or cloth apply the solution to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes. This will help breakdown the oils found in the salad dressing.

3. Rinse and Repeat

Rinse the shirt with cold water, and then reapply the detergent solution and gently work it into the fabric with your fingers or brush. Once again rinse the shirt with cold water.

4.Pre-treat with Vinegar Solution

Mix 1 tablespoon white vinegar with 2 tablespoons of warm water. Rub this mixture into the stained area, let it sit for five minutes and then rinse with cold water. Repeat this step if necessary.

5. Wash in Cold Water

Wash the sleep shirt in cold water in the washing machine, and let air dry afterwards. Be sure to read the label for the best cleaning instructions for your shirt.
