Reply:a thick solution of baking soda should do the trick spread it on leave it maybe an hour and wash its gd for smells too.
Reply:this sounds like a strange 1 here ....but try it ...crush 2 aspirin tablets in warm water then soak the shirt 4 ...3 hours.... then wash as normal.... give it a go..... :)))) nothing 2 lose.... i swear it works.....
Reply:buy some new ones!
Reply:Soak the area with cider vinegar and then bung them in the washing machine. This works for sweat stains and accumulated gunk.
Reply:Soak in Ariel for the night. It will do the trick.
Reply:With good old fashioned soap bar ,soap, cold water and lots of sun. Soak your T-shirt´s in cold water , rub the soap into the stains, Leave the soap on and the shirts free from water for at least 1/2 hr, Back to cold water give a rinse, Now rub more soap to the satin , leaving the soap on pop into your washing machine on a 30ºc or 40ºc normal wash cycle . Once done hang the t-shirts outside in the sun, If the t-shirts are white the sun will bleach them whiter than white and bleach the stain out. If your T-shirts are dark coloured once, Make sure you turn them inside out before hanging them outside in the sun. This way the sun won´t bleach the colour out of them but will still bleach the stain out. It might take a few turns doing this , just depends on how bad the stains are.

Reply:change your deoderant.
Reply:Once the shirts have reached this stage, there is not much that can be done, other than buying new shirts.





To prevent it from happening in the first place, make sure that you purchase a deodorant that DOES NOT contain aluminum chloride. Aluminum is the ingredient for perspiration control. The aluminum in an antiperspirant chemically reacts with the salt in your perspiration to create the yellow stains. If you use a DEODORANT ONLY (with NO aluminum content [check the ingredients list]), your shirts will not stain.





My personal experience with this solution is that it does indeed work as far as saving your white T-shirts, but I find that the odor protection does not last as long (since you perspire more). However, I think that is preferable to being caught wearing a yellow-stained shirt that looks nasty.
Reply:I've never heard of being able to get rid of these stains I think it's probably best that you buy some new ones and then invest in a different deodrant.

  1. I would soak in warm water for awhile before washing and brushing it using a brush. Next time is better to choose a deodorant that doesn’t clog-up the skin or preventing sweating.
    A good deodorant is one without leaving residues, stains and odours behind is best. I've been using UARMSOL deodorant for many years now, even when I sweat, I have no more underarm or armpit odours. I applied 1 pinch and it's all to it for the whole day without worries about any smell afterwards. There's no chemicals, oil or fragrances added. No staining clothes too. There's no after sport smell or odour masking. And the best thing is I don't have to shave !
