The first step in removing urine stains from any cloth material is to pre-treat the stain before washing. To do this, you'll need to create a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts cold water. To apply the mixture, simply dampen a clean white cloth or paper towel with it and then dab the urine stain gently until it is completely saturated. Allow the vinegar to soak in for around 10 minutes.
Once the stain has had enough time to soak in the vinegar solution, you'll want to wash shirt as normal. Use your usual detergent and hottest temperature setting recommended for the fabric. For additional cleaning power, try adding a teaspoon of baking soda to the load. After washing, check the shirt for any remaining signs of the urine stain.
Once the shirt is washed, you'll need to dry it. Place the shirt in the dryer on the lowest heat setting to avoid setting stain. Once it's dry, check the shirt thoroughly for any remaining signs of the stain. If the stain is still visible, repeat steps 1 and 2.
Urine stains can be difficult to remove, but with these simple steps you can easily and effectively get rid of them. Start by pre-treating the stain with a vinegar and water solution, followed by washing the shirt in hot water and detergent. Finally, dry the item on the lowest heat setting possible. With these tips, you can restore your shirt back to its original condition in no time!
