Home Remedies to Get Rid of Stains from your Clothes

March 31, 2009


For every activity that you perform in your daily life seems like there is a stain. From kitchen stains to those you can pick up from your yard; you name it and nature provides you with bountiful accompaniments.

If you have wax stains on your garments then chances are that you will panic as initial feelings are that you are not going to be able to get rid of the stains. This is absolutely untrue. Getting rid of these stains are extremely easy. First you need to let the wax cool down completely and then scrape of as much as you can. Later pour boiling water on the area that has been stained and watch the wax stains disappear.

If rust stains are your reason to despair then you need to be cautious. Rust stains tend to spread. Never use bleach on these stains as it will discolor the area completely. What you need to do is soak the garment in ho water for a few minutes and then wash as usual.

Ink stains are common on kid’s clothes. All you need to do is use either a few drops of glycerin or hairspray on the garment and wash away the stains. Rub gently without applying too much force.

Mud stains need to be dried and bushed off with a hard bristled brush. Once that is done, add a few drops of liquid detergent with a dropper and rub the stain. Wash off the mud. To take care of the stains add one part of white vinegar with one part of water and soak the area in it.

For grease stains that you’ve gotten all over you while working on your car or lawn mover place the garment on a dry towel to et the oils soak into the towel. Next rinse the garment and wash with the hottest water recommended for the fabric and see the stains vanish into nothingness.

    I like your idea of hairspray on the ink stain. I’ve never tried that before. I usually use rubbing alcohol and nail polish remover. Next time I’m going to give the hairspray a try. Is there a certain brand that you use??
