Ideas how to get out stains

[Mrs Behavin]

Anyone have any secrets on how to get a red kool-aid stain out of a white shirt? I was told to try Pine Sol, I tried it but didnt work.

what about that clorox magic marker thing?

What ever you use.... DON'T put it in the dryer if it didn't come out in the wash. It will permanently set the stain in.

mmmk old remedy, try Vinegar and Cornflour mixed together to make a paste put the paste over the stain and leave it for about 10 minutes then wash it.
Oooor you could try Nappy san or if all else fails use bleach

Ive tried a Tide pen thingy I had....no luck I think the spill must have been on there too long.

Yeah I learned that the hard way one time with one of my white work shirts. I had spilled pancake syrup on it, needless to say I put it in the dryer and the stain set in.:willy_nilly:

buy a new shirt

Hydrogen peroxide mixed with baking soda. Try it on a non-conspicuous place first.

you dweeb

It's a shirt of my daughters that her great-grandma from California got her for her birthday, not even a month ago

Or you can do the bachelor fix....

Mix a strong batch of red kool-aid and soak the whole shirt in it over night. Then you won't be able to tell where the stain was.

:24::24: that'll definately be an option........but my last option. I have a feeling if I did that my child will strike me down :ninja

Take ammonia and hot water in equal amounts and mix it together. Put it in a sprayer bottle and spray it on the stain. Put a towel on top of it and iron it with it set to it's highest setting. The stain should transfer onto the towel.

Hot water and lots of OxyClean????

Kool aid is a beast!

This has and has not worked for me. It's worth a shot though.

Drop 5 or 6 drops of Dawn dish washing liquid into some warm water. (The original blue kind, not any of the fancy new stuff.)

Dampen a white cotton cloth (old cloth diaper works well,) with the dishwashing liquid and water mixture and lay it over the stain.

Then put your clothes iron on top of it, on the 'low' setting

Let this sit for fifteen minutes, and don't press down!!
The kool aid color should start to wick up into the cloth.... You should be able to see some of the kool aid color on the cloth. Fold it to use a clean part or apply a new cloth, with fresh liquid and repeat the method as needed.


If everything else fails... Bleach the crap out of it.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

Theres some really good ideas in here! Thanks guys. Things Ive never heard of before. My child is desperate to have this stain out so Im gonna try each one until I get it out.

Use scissors and cut it out

White wine, seems like a waste of alcohol to me but it does work!

Amy, you'll have to let us know if any of these worked.
