Removing yellow stains on the armpits from clothes

Most often, it would seem that athletes should find yellow spots on their clothes. But this problem is faced by all people, without exception. Most of us do not know how to deal with this problem, so we send damaged things straight to the country house or to the trash can. Although you should not do this, because there is a way out. Today, there are so many ways to deal with yellow, white and brown stains on clothes.

Sweat stains on the armpits on clothes appear for various reasons:

• low-quality deodorant, with a lot of aluminum;
• synthetic fabrics or fabrics with poor perforation;
• non-compliance with the rules of personal hygiene;
• congenital diseases.

Many people think that with repeated use of deodorant, they will eliminate the problem of underarm stains. Unfortunately, it is not. Deodorants only eliminate odor. From the deodorant, yellowness eats into clothes and is more difficult to wash, so such stains should be soaked immediately.

Brown and dark spots are less common. They appear with profuse sweating and pigmented skin, which causes sweat to turn brown.Such stains are more difficult to remove from clothing, especially from white.

An even bigger problem will arise with old and stubborn stains. The longer such clothes lie, the more difficult it will be to wash them. They are very hard to get out of clothes. Although it is indeed possible. Such marks on clothes can be removed with a stain remover or oxygen bleach, as well as folk remedies.

Before washing, you need to soak the stain for a while, for this there are many ways and folk remedies. One of them will definitely end up in your closet.

The most common method for removing yellow spots is this is peroxide and soda, but there are other methods:

• Fairy. This is a tool used by many housewives. It's great for getting rid of those nasty underarm stains. To do this, dilute 10 ml of Fairy in 200 ml of plain water and treat annoying spots, then leave for several hours to act. As soon as the product is absorbed into the fabric, you can proceed to the second stage - washing with laundry soap.

• Soda. Great option for fresh stains. If your thing with a yellow sweat stain has been lying for more than one day, then this method will not work. Prepare "porridge" - 50 grams of soda and 50 grams of water, mix until smooth. Apply to the problem area and after 10 minutes rub with a toothbrush and leave for another 1 hour. Rinse a couple of times afterwards.

• Hydrogen peroxide. In this case, everything is simple: just pour peroxide on the stain, wait 5-10 minutes, depending on the pollution, and rinse.

• Aspirin. This is not just a headache pill, but also an excellent remedy for yellowness on clothes under the arms. To do this, crush 4 aspirin tablets and pour 200 ml of water, then pour over the stain and leave for 50-60 minutes. Then rinse.

• Salt. The most famous way to wash various stains. This method works well not only for wine stains, but also for yellow stains. Mix 250 g of salt with 1 liter of water, apply on the stain, leave for 10 minutes and rinse in warm water.

• Petrol. According to many, this is a strange way to clean, but it works no worse than the above. However, not everyone in the house will have gasoline. It is necessary to moisten the cotton wool and treat the contaminated area.

• Vinegar. The application is the same as in the previous paragraphs. Apply to stain and wash with soap.

• Lemon acid. This tool is applied for a large amount of time and it is not known whether there will be a result. Apply 200 ml of water to 10 ml of citric acid on the stain and rinse with water.

Before putting things with stains in the washing machine, as we have already found out above, you must first wash or soak them for a couple of hours.

The washing machine cannot wash yellow and white stains without super products. It is best to use oxygen-containing stain removers. No need for an initial soak. This must be done, as the smell can transfer to other things.

There are also effective store tools. You can take ordinary washing powder, for example, Taid or Ariel make a slurry out of it and apply to the stain, then wash in the usual way.

Another way is soap, for example, "Antipyatin" or children's. Lubricate the place of contamination with soap and leave to dry, then wash in the machine. Another option is a remedy from the company Amway. Use as directed in the instructions.

Often, in addition to stains, we are faced with an unpleasant odor. No matter how you protect yourself with deodorant, If you sweat a lot, no antiperspirant will do. Therefore, both stains and smell remain. Salt will help remove the smell. Dilute a spoonful of salt with a glass of water and rub it into a cloth, then rinse the contaminated area.

An effective way to eliminate odor is to soak clothes with hair shampoo. It degreases the stain and eliminates unpleasant odors from clothes.

In addition to yellow, there are also white spots on clothes that appear from the use of deodorant. It is not difficult to wash such stains if they are not old. After wearing the garment in the evening, remove it and soak it for 1 hour, then remove the stain with a normal wash.

If your sweater or T-shirt is black, then sweat on such clothes and, accordingly, stains will be visible twice as much, and they will be displayed worse than with light ones. On black clothes, such spots stand out very strongly. If you do not immediately remove them, then you can say goodbye to the thing.

Use vodka or medical alcohol. Soak for a while and send to the machine. Old stains are very difficult to remove. Sometimes they don't fade at all. First, soak the clothes and rinse them, then use one of the stain removal methods.

A little higher, we have already considered various methods, but individually they will not cope with pollution. Therefore, you need to combine:

• Ammonia and citric acid (or juice).Wait 2 hours before washing.
• Vinegar must be mixed with baking soda and applied to the stain. Do not use additional bleach.
• Hydrogen peroxide and aspirin are excellent and most importantly effective. Application time 10 minutes.

When removing yellow spots, the fabric from which the item is made must also be taken into account. The most difficult to remove stains from cotton fabrics, such as T-shirts and shirts. And again we return to peroxide and salt. This unique tool is suitable even for delicate fabrics. When applying, just do not forget that the solution must be filled with water so that your item does not deteriorate.

Wool and silk are more "delicate" fabrics for chemicals. Fabrics are easily damaged by agents such as salt, hydrogen peroxide and soda. But if you know the proportions, then everything will work out without harming the jacket or cardigan. You can also try hyposulfite. To do this, mix 50 g of hyposulfite with 200 g of water. Leave for 5-10 minutes. Rinse in warm water.

Such stains can be removed from silk fabrics with ammonia and white spirit. The method of application is just as simple. It is enough to mix these ingredients in equal parts and rub the problem area. Definitely need to rinse.

The combination of white spirit and ammonia will help perfectly, rub and leave for a while.

If the stain is not old, then this method is suitable for white or light-colored clothes: apply concentrated lemon juice and leave to dry. Then wash either by hand or machine wash. If the pollution is old, then add salt to the lemon juice - the stain will brighten before your eyes.
