Answers:
To remove these sweat marks from the underarm´s, best way I find is to use good old fashioned bar soap, You can find this in your local hardware store. Soak first in cold water , rub in the soap. Leaving the garment with the soap on & free from water,say 1/2 hr should be enough. then back to the cold water,add more soap, then pop into your washing machine on a normal wash, or if it´s a hand wash item, rub the stains, then rinse well. Next hang outside in the sun , the sun will do the rest of the work for you by bleaching out any remaining stain´s the natural way
Try soaking it in Oxyclean that is 1 scoop to 2 gallons of the warmest water safest for the garment. I have been very successful restoring vintage clothing using Oxyclean.
