Step 1: Pre-Treat the Stain
The first step is to pre-treat stain with a stain remover. You can either use store-bought products or homemade solutions. For homemade solutions, you can mix one part white vinegar with two parts dish soap. Apply the solution liberally to the stained area and let it sit for a few minutes.
Step 2: Machine Wash
Once the stain remover has had a chance to work its magic, put the sleep shirt in the washing machine. Be sure to use the right detergent and pre-treat cycle. Use a cold water setting, so the fabric doesn't shrink or suffer any other kind of damage. After the cycle is complete, take out the shirt and inspect stain.
Step 3: Spot Treat
If the stain is still visible, you may need to do some spot treating. Again, you can opt for a store-bought product or make your own with a combination of baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and water. Make a paste, apply it to the stain, and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, rinse off the paste with warm water and repeat the process if needed.
Conclusion
Varnish stains can be a pain, but they don't have to stay. Just use the steps outlined above and you should have no problem getting rid of those pesky stains. In no time your sleep shirt will be looking good as new!
