How to remove stains from shirts?

We often get stains on our bodies accidentally. Some stains are easier to remove, some are difficult to remove, and some stains cannot be washed out even after many washes. Once a shirt is stained, it not only affects the appearance, but it may also make it impossible to wear it. It would be a pity to throw the clothes away directly. If you don’t throw it away, how can you remove the stains on the shirt? The following introduces methods for removing stains from shirts.

(1) Blue ink stains: When ink stains clothes, take them off immediately, soak them in cold water, and then apply soap to wash them off. If the ink stain has been there for too long, you can soak it in ammonia or alkaline solution for a while, then rinse it with water immediately to remove it. In addition, you can also put some rice grains on the ink stains, rub them in water, and then rinse them with soap or bleach water to remove them. Any clothes washed with bleach should be rinsed with clean water immediately to prevent the life of the fibers from being affected over time.

(2) Tea stains: Tea stains can be washed with water (except for blue and black clothes), and old tea stains can be washed with concentrated salt water.

(3) Blood stains: Because blood contains protein, which is difficult to dissolve when exposed to heat, hot water should not be used to remove blood stains. If you drop a few drops of hydrogen peroxide (sold at pharmacies) on the blood stain, or scrub it with white radish juice, you can also quickly remove the blood stain.

(4) Oil stains: Drop some gasoline on the oil stains. After the gasoline evaporates, the oil stains will disappear as well. You can also remove grease by applying alcohol or salt solution to the grease stain. If cooking oil (such as soup oil) stains your clothes, soak them in warm salt water, then rub them with soap and rinse them to remove the stains. In addition, place blotting paper on the oil stain and iron it with an iron. The oil stain will evaporate when heated and be absorbed by the blotting paper.

(5) Sweat stains: To wash clothes with sweat stains, first soak the clothes in 10% salt water and scrub them for 10 minutes. Then rinse them with clean water and then wash them with soap to remove the stains. Add 20-30 drops of 10% ammonia water to clean water, stir evenly, then put the clothes with sweat stains in and rub them repeatedly, then rinse with clean water, and the sweat stains will disappear quickly.

(6) Rust stains: Put a spoonful of oxalic acid in a basin, then pour in a cup of hot water to dissolve all the oxalic acid. Then add half a basin of warm water and soak the rusty clothes. Take them out after about 10 minutes and the rust stains will disappear. Then scrub them with soap and rinse them with clean water and the clothes will return to their original appearance.

(7) Stain: The simplest way is to soak in pure alkali solution, or rinse with oxidizing bleach (such as dilute bleach solution).

(8) Fruit juice: Fresh fruit juice stains can be washed off with salt or warm water and soap. If the stain has been there for a long time, you can rinse it off with ammonia or wipe it off with hydrogen peroxide.
