I have a black, 70% silk, 30% cotton, knit sweater that has accumulated deodorant on the inside underarms. So far I have only tried the dry cleaner, and washing it in cold water on the hand-wash cycle with a "delicates" detergent, and a small amount of liquid fabric softener. Please tell me what is best to try next.
How do I remove deodorant stains from my black sweater?
Try using the delicates detergent again, but use an old toothbrush (soft) to gently scrub it.
Reply:You can get Zero for dark clothes and use in the gentle cycle on your maching...
Reply:Rolled up panthyhose.
Reply:Try som ERA. That gets ANY stain out.
Reply:A hairdryer on the spot. The heat melts the deoderant away.
Reply:repeat with delicate detergent. apply directly onto stain and hand rub, hand rinse.
Normally, I would have stated full strength liquid laundry detergent %26amp; scrub/brush it prior to wash. But silk may lose some of its color doing that.
