Tar stains on scrubs are caused by the stickiness of tar when it comes in contact with the fabric. Tar is made up of hydrocarbons, which, when mixed with dirt and oils, can create a sticky residue that adheres to fabrics, making it difficult to remove. It may be caused by contact with asphalt, asphalt sealers, or other tar-based products.
Removing tar stains from scrubs is possible but requires a bit of technique. Be aware that this method requires a bit of elbow grease — it won’t be a quick fix, especially if the stain has already set in. Here’s what you need to do:
Once your scrubs are free from tar stains, take measures to prevent them from appearing again. To do so, use a fabric protector spray that will create a barrier between the fabric and future tar stains. Additionally, machine wash scrubs regularly to prevent built-up residue of any kind.
