What You Need:

  • Dish soap or laundry detergent
  • White vinegar
  • Toothbrush
  • Clean, white cloth
  • Hydrogen peroxide
  • Cold water

Instructions:

  1. Start by flipping the shirt inside out so that stain is on the inside.
  2. Mix 1 teaspoon of dish soap or laundry detergent with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar and 2 cups of cold water.
  3. Soak the shirt in the solution for 15 minutes.
  4. After 15 minutes, take the shirt out and brush the stain lightly with a toothbrush. Be sure not to rub too harshly.
  5. Rinse the shirt off with cold water and examine the stain. If the stain is still present, soak shirt in a solution of 1 teaspoon of dish soap or laundry detergent, 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide, and 2 cups of cold water for another 15 minutes.
  6. After 15 minutes, rinse the shirt off and brush lightly with a toothbrush. The stain should be gone.
  7. If the stain is still present, soak shirt in a solution of 1 teaspoon of dish soap or laundry detergent, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, and 2 cups of cold water for 30 minutes.
  8. After 30 minutes, rinse the shirt off and brush lightly with a toothbrush. The stain should be gone.
  9. Finally, if stain is still present, mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar and 2 cups of cold water. Soak shirt in the solution for another 30 minutes.
  10. After 30 minutes, rinse the shirt off and brush lightly with a toothbrush. The stain should be gone.
  11. Allow the shirt to air dry or tumble dry on a low setting.

Tips:

  • The sooner you act, the more successful you will be in removing the stain.
  • Always test a small area of the fabric first to make sure it won't damage the color or texture.
