The first step is to prepare the apron by wetting the area with lukewarm water. Then apply some laundry detergent directly onto the stain and rub it gently into the fabric. Soak area for about 15-20 minutes in a bowl of warm water and detergent.

Once the stain is soaked, rinse it with lukewarm water. Make sure that all of detergent has been removed, as this will prevent leftover residue from setting the stain.

If the stain remains, you can use a white rag dipped in rubbing alcohol and dab the stain. Be careful not to scrub the fabric as this can damage it.

Now it's time to launder the apron. Set the washer cycle to delicate, cold water and mild detergent. Add a half-cup of white vinegar to help break down any remaining residue. Do not put it in the dryer; instead, lay it flat on a towel or air-dry.

Follow these steps, and your apron should be free of suntan lotion stains. Good luck and happy cleaning!
