Stain Help!?
Question:I have a brand new t-shirt and my friend got blue ink from a pen on it. Is there a way I can get in out?
Answers:
Oxygen bleach would be my first try. Apply it to the spot and let it set a minute then rinse with clear water. Try again if it does not remove it all.
umm first try washing it in hot water and if that doesnt work umm try like tide on the go thing..and if that doesnt work then umm return the shirt and say u didnt like it but get a new 1 exactly like it lol
any ink on cloth problem, ... use hairspray. Asap. just spray it on until the area is soaked in hairspray then rub at it.
CHEAP hairspray...pump works best...just be sure to do a "test spot"where is isnt' visible...
if there is no color fade and no staining on the test spot...
spray the ink spot with the hairspray and scrub the ink spot with a brush(an old toothbrush usually does the trick)
rinse with water and then wash as normal
Try pouring a little rubbing alcohol on the spot, let it stay for 10 minutes and then add detergent and rub the stain and rinse, you might have to do it again. You can also try hairspray, spray it on and wait the them wash as usual.
Hairspray has worked on ink spots if caught before it goes through the dryer. Put and old towel under the spot and saturate with the spray. Blot with a clean cloth and repeat if necessary. Then wash as usual.
Just recently we had a red ink pen go through the washer and dryer with a load of light colored clothes. Hairspray did not help since this was not discovered until the clothes were dried. I thought they were ruined but soaked in OxyClean, then rubbed Goop into the worst spots, and rewashed. Surprisingly the spots came out.
