How do you prevent yellow arm pit stains?


Question:

Answers:
hough more visible on white tops, pit stains can also appear on different colored tops. Here are some things you can do to get rid of and avoid them in the first place.

Follow instructions
First and foremost, always follow the cleaning instructions on your garment's label.

Wash right away
Timing is everything, so try to wash your clothes as soon as you can, especially after sweating excessively. For example, don't let your sweat-drenched T-shirts linger in your gym bag for days, and always wash your white business shirts regularly. Sweat contains salt that will erode your clothes in no time.

Pre-treat
Pre-treating your shirt's armpit area will definitely aid the stain-removal process. Put undiluted laundry detergent directly on the yellowish area and launder immediately. Remember that it's worth paying more for higher quality laundry detergent. Or maybe you should just consult a physician to get your eccrine and apocrine glands examined.

Other quick tips
Make your whites whiter by bleaching in warm water or by adding 1/4 cup of baking soda to your laundry.

Remember to remove the stains as much as possible before placing the item in the dryer; drying will only make your stains more permanent.

Avoid deodorants and antiperspirants with acidic solutions and aluminum chloride.

Finally, if your "pits" are deeply coated, don't even bother trying; you're better off throwing out the T-shirt and replacing it. If this is a common occurrence, consider spending less on your Ts.

UUUUrrrrrgggggh!
Don't use deodorant. That's what causes the yellow stain. If you shower and wash your clothes regularly, you shouldn't need it. Personally, I prefer the smell of somebody's sweat to the cheap perfumes they put in deodorant, it's sickening.
