How to Remove Salt Stains From Clothes

The winter months bring out the rock salt, especially in areas that receive a large amount of snow. The combination of rock salt and calcium chloride seems to stain clothes in a bad way. In most cases, any salt can be removed from clothing through regular laundering in a cold wash cycle. But most is not all, so with just a little extra work, you can have all your clothes salt-free in no time.
