Does anybody have any great stain removers? I never dried any of Kayleigh’s baby shirts because I didn’t want any puke stains. I used dreft stain remover and I always thought I did a good job. I packed up her baby stuff and pulled it out yesterday to send to my sister and wow I couldn’t believe how many “puke” stains there were.
They are just yellow and gross! I know when I packed them up I didn’t see them. I will say though seeing those stains brought back a “flood” of memories. Ok sorry inadvance for the bad pun
Thanks!Sometimes when you pack away white clothing which appears to be clean and stain free, you’ll find yellow stains on them when you unpack them months later. I read once that it has to do with some kind of chemical reaction that ocurrs. Is it just white shirts that have these yellow stains?
I’ve never figured out how to remove these yellow stains, and I’m pretty good at stain removal.
I’ll be interested in seeing if anyone here knows the answer.For now I’d try spraying them with a generuos amount of stain remover (I like Shout the best) and then soaking them in some water with a little bleach, then washing them in cold or warm water. Don’t use hot water until you are sure the stains are gone because hot water will set the stain if it isn’t already. I gets lots of stains out this way, but the yellow ones from storing clothes don’t always come out.
Good luck! Did your sister have a baby?
Thanks Christine I wondered if it was some sort of reaction. I have Shout and multiple others so I will try your suggestions. They are on a lot of white items but also the pink ones. I aways thought I did a good job so my stain fighting ego was blown when I saw this
No she hasn’t had a baby but she’s trying and she has a 5 bedroom 3 story house compared to my 3 bedroom double wide so she gets to store them for now!
Thanks for starting this. We’ve used oxy clean with mixed results… quite good for organic stains, but not “daycare” stains. I can’t find anything to get paint stains out from daycare. It’s supposed to be washable, ya right!
Any suggestions?I’m going to buy some jetdry the next time I go shopping. I can’t wait to see if it works. Can you tell I’m a bored SAHM?
yeah…it is the stuff for dishes…don’t ask my how it works…but I know it did…I hope it does for ya’ll too.
