Tiny stains on clothes

[Duvetdweller]

I’m talking pasta drops, chocolate, tomato sauce. I’ve got a Miele washing machine, use pre stain remover and biological powder and the stains still don’t completely cone out. What am I doing wrong?!!!!

Soak in Milton then put in the sun. It should bring them out

Does soaking in Milton apply to all clothes? It’s not just plain whites, printed t-shirts, striped tops etc? I don’t want to bleach them

I'm not too sure about different patterns... you could just try the sunshine? I found an orange stain on my white blouse as I hung it outside, I brought it in a few hours later and it had gone.

Thanks - I’ll give it a bash

I have a similar problem with specks of oil, probably from spashes of salad dressing

Olbas oil is great for taking out oil stains. Soak the stained area in a little bit of Olbas oil , leave for an hour or so and then wash on a hot wash with detergent.

Interesting Vanilla. I’ve used oil to clean greasy surfaces in the kitchen but I wouldn’t have thought to use it on fabric. I’ll give it a try!

Olbas Oil though - it's very specific!!

Don't rub sunflower oil into your best blouse!
