The first step to getting rid of urine stains is to blot the area with a paper towel or cloth. Blotting will help remove as much liquid as possible and prevent the stain from spreading. Move around the stained area in a circular motion and replace the paper towels or cloths when they become saturated.
Once you have blotted up as much of the liquid as possible, it's time to pre-treat the stain. Use a stain remover designed for fabric or a DIY solution of 1 part vinegar and 2 parts water. Apply the solution to the stained area and allow it to sit for a few minutes before washing.
After pre-treating the stain, launder the robe as usual, following the instructions on care tag. Add a cup of white vinegar to the wash cycle, as this will help brighten the fabric and remove odor.
Finally, hang dry your robe in direct sunlight to help break down any remaining odors. Avoid using the dryer, as this can cause the stain to set in and become even harder to remove.
Urine stains don't have to spell the end of your favorite robe. With a little time and effort, you can remove them and have your robe looking good as new.
