Right on the front of my nice pink top

I propose to vanish before washing, but should I soak it first? or will that turn make it worse?

TIA

This is how bored I am right now. I am posting on my own thread (how sad is that?). But in c\se anyone else finds themself in this position - vanishing and wahsing at 50degrees doesnt work. Beetroot stain still there

Have yopu tried attacking it with neat washing up liquid before washing it? A friend of mine swears by it for all amnner of stains on clothing.

Lift bin lid and chuck it in. Beetroot takes no prisoners!

have you tried googling it?
It's not something I have ever had to try to do so I can't recommend one.

Mix washing powdwe and water into a paste, smear thickly over stain, leave for one hour, than wash as normal.

I always harp on about this stuff but De-Solvit is fantastic for stains especially old ones.

Comes in an aerosol spray. You can buy it at the supermarket and it is a bit expensive but having said that most stain removers are.

I can't recommend it enough. It even got out dd's old banana stains!

Thanks YellowFeather I willlook out for that. I have sooo many things with old stains on them I am prepared to give it a try!
