Return to article: How to Get Rid of Deodorant Stains
on 8/8/2006 Before putting on your shirt, fold it up, so when you put the shirt on, the stains will be on the inside of the shirt, and none on the outside. Or try a clear deodorant.
on 4/2/2006 The easiest way to remove blood from any fabric is simply hydrogen peroxide. I'm a nurse, and this is fast and instant. It's what hospitals and nursing homes use, and it's what I use on my scrubs. Try it just once and you'll see. No need to test any fabrics. I guarantee this will work.
on 3/2/2006 Pre-treat the blood stain by rubbing your laundry detergent on to the stain and follow by rubbing with borax powder. Rub the borax powder into the detergent on the stain and wait about 30 minutes. Wash as usual. This really works!
on 2/2/2006 Take some OxiClean powder, and make a paste by adding some warm water. Dip the stain(s) in the paste, remove, and let sit overnight. Wash as you normally would, and you should see the results. It may take two or three attempts, but this method does work, even for those serious stains.
on 11/22/2005 The easiest way is to not use an antiperspirant or use a gel which doesn't leave white streaks in the first place. Old Spice has a really good High Endurance deodorant that lasts all day, and is not antiperspirant. It's rather well priced and if you don't sweat a lot, it's a very good product.
on 11/22/2005 Take your pointer finger and rub gently, but quickly, over the deodorant stain. After about 10-30 seconds or so, the stain will disappear.
on 11/22/2005 When you get a deodorant spot on your shirt, just get a Q-tip wet and stretch the fabric out a little bit and start scrubbing. When you cant see the stain anymore let it dry. This works especially good on black T-shirts.
on 11/22/2005 Take a soft bristle brush and dampen it in water(or a damp wash cloth). Rub the stain in an up and down motion and it will disappear.
on 11/22/2005 Use the tail end of your garment (the inside part of the fabric) to brush the white streaks off the outside. Because it's the same fabric (whatever it may be), it takes it right off every time. Seriously.
on 11/22/2005 If you have white marks on your clothes just fold the item up and use a clean piece of the item to rub against the white marks. This will make them disappear almost instantly.
on 11/22/2005 This is perfect when you don't have time to change your shirt. Get a nylon stocking and scrub the deodorant streak right off!
on 6/11/2007 Just wipe deodorant marks off your clothes with the blue sponge from a dry cleaner's hanger. I have never used anything that worked so well and fast.
on 11/22/2005 Scrub lightly at the deodorant mark with a dry paper towel, and it will often come off. Very handy for when you've noticed the mark at a party.
on 11/22/2005 Take a sock and put it inside out, then rub off the deodorant.
on 11/22/2005 I always rub another part of my shirt against the ugly white deodorant stains to get rid of them.
