This will be a weekly post to make stinky stains go away(or at least make them a little less noticable). Check back each week for more helpful tips or add one in the comments below.
THE STAIN:
Deodorants
ON COTTON,LINEN,POLYESTER,ACRYLIC,etc:
Soak for 30 minutes in solution of 1 qt cool water, 1 TBS ammonia, 1/2 tsp dishwashing liquid. Rinse. Soak again for 1 hour in warm water and 1 TBS white vinegar. Rinse; dry
WOOL,SILK,ACETATE,SUEDE,LEATHER,FIBERGLASS,RAYON:
Same.
WOOD FURNITURE,FURNITURE FABRICS,FLOORS,WALLPAPER,CARPET:
Furniture fabrics: Clean with solution of 1 part dishwashing liquid and 3 parts water; add ammonia. Absorb, using cloth. Rinse with cool water.
*The above tips are from Family Circus magazine printed 5/12/1998 page 12. TheSmellyArmpit's tip is that you might just be allergic to the kind of deoderant you are using. If you seem to have "pit stains" no matter how you wash your clothes, then try out some different deo for your b.o.
