Lily pollen stains?
Question:Managed to get lily pollen stains on a good shirt.. Anyone got any experience to get the stain out.. i can't seem to shift it..!
Answers:
Stain Devils (from Tesco, Adsa, etc) do a remover for pollen stains, i've used it myself and it works.
If it's a white shirt,use bleach. Or try leaving it in soak over night in soap powder or salt.
Try a small taste of washing up liquid or vanish soap with luke warm water.
If this happens again , first think to do is not to rub it off, take off as much pollen with sellotape. Soak in cold water, then add a small amount of dish washing detergent, Leave for a few min´s , then wash on a cold wash 30ºc. Hang outside in the sun, and the sun will bleach out any remaining stain´s the natural way, But sure it will come out , this way
sorry i misread the question and thought it said lily allen stains lol...yuk.
Oxi-Clean! I use it on everything. You can get a nice sized spray bottle of it at Wal-Mart for less than $3 and it will last a long time. I don't use regular bleach anymore as it is not safe for colors or the fabric. Oxi-Clean is GREAT!!
Go buy some Oxi-Clean granules, and then make up a strong solution using hot water. Let the shirt soak in it overnight, and then launder as usual in the machine. I had stamen pollen on a jumper, and Oxi-Clean took it right out. Nothing else that I tried worked at all, including Vanish.
