Fucking Tiger balm

[IHopeYouStepOnALegPiece]

Ignoring the fact that I wiped the bastard stuff my eye last week, how the fuck do you get it off fabric?!

On the back of the neck, forgot, leant on a pillow for a bit, put the pillow to one side, went to bed, 2 days later and it’s GLOWING ffs. Second picture is after a wash with detergent and fucking vanish.

For the love of god, please help me 😩😭

Soda crystals and white vinegar in hot water
May need more than once
Then outside in the (ha!) Sunshine/UV light

Elbow grease spray?

Wash it again with vanish and maybe bleach? Then air dry it in the sun.

I don't know if that will work but once when I got lilly pollen on a white dress the sun made it go away.

I had this happen to my bed sheet, it did come out but cannot remember exactly what I used on that occasion. Think I may have presoaked in washing up liquid or vanish/soda crystals or both!

Get in there with some neat washing up liquid then try again :)

bleach it

It's an oil - you need to use washing up liquid. Massage into the area and rinse a few times. Then a hot wash with some Vanish white and a dry on the line.

Can't you just throw it away

We use the white tiger balm for this reason.
Nippy if you get in your eye Ball.
I got it in a really sensitive place going to the toilet.hot,hot, 🔥

Don't bleach it, it will do nothing but weaken the structure of the fabric . Tiger balm is oil based

I'm sorry, but this has made me laugh!! Not only is my bed also yellow and smells of menthol, but it's also stained from the damn bonnet my curly hair hairdresser told me to wear at night 😆

I'm so glad I'm single and sleep alone!

I'd put that on the line in the sun till it has faded.

Why the fuck would I do that? 🙄

Ok, I scrubbed it in neat washing up liquid and soaked in some soda crystals, it’s now hanging in the sun. There’s still a tint of it that I’m hopeful about but it’s SO SO SO much better.

Thank you oh wise ones!

@Thevelvelletes I’m sorry, what?? WHITE tiger balm?! I need to find this…

Forgot the pic

I was going to suggest elbow grease spray too. It was the only thing that got an oily stain off dc2's coat.
Glad you got it cleaner.

Surely you should be sleeping in a tin hat, not a bonnet?

Because it's literally just a pillowcase? And not a £3000 ballgown ?! And it looks minging btw 🤣

Fucking tiger balm were the exact words I was muttering when sitting in a freezing cold bath after rubbing the stuff on the insides of my thighs after a workout and getting it in a place tiger balm should never go!

Noooooo! I thought getting it in my eye was bad 😂

Wonderful that you don’t own it then is isnt it (or the other one, or the matching bedspread…which, aside from the waste, is why throwing it away it stupid)

I was just thinking what a nice pillowcase it is!

Thanks 😉. White company. Washes up fabulously 😂😁

I thought it looked like White Company! Glad you were able to salvage it.

White company has a “look” about it doesn’t it 😂

Im v grateful for the hive mind of MN!
