Do you struggle with mud stains? Maybe your child wiping their hands down their clothes after eating greasy food fill you with dread? Perhaps baby poo stains are your nemesis? Or maybe it’s a spilt glass of wine that you worried may never come out?

Whenever I open blackcurrant cordial I find some of the big bottles have a pull top under the lid, pull too hard and the stuff sprays a little and it is goodbye white t-shirt. :-(

ink! 😢😢

Paint from nursery. They say it's washable but clearly not when I'm in charge of the laundry

Sweat - it's the pits!! .
Seriously though - dread getting them as it's a stain that doesn't shift and then the clothing is ruined or relegated to a lesser use and definately doesn't get hung outside!!

vomit stains - terrifies me

All things foody and oily that I drip down my front. Olive oil. Salad dressing. Mayonnaise. Bolognese sauce. Arrabiata sauce. You name it.

I can get the colour stains out, but the grease mark is always there!

Grass stains and any food stains.

Curry Stains

The mysterious brown ones of unknown provenance, with no explanation proffered, and no explanation wanted.

Red wine is my ultimate nightmare stain. to the point I have banned it from my home

ANYTHING on my carpet. We have just moved house and it has a lovely cream carpet. I know it's not going to last with kids and dogs but I'm trying 😂
Right now sun tan lotion is driving me insane xx

Curry and red wine stains are a nightmare to get out of fabric.

Grass stains. My son plays football and cricket and the stains from all the slide tackles etc are my nemesis!

Anything tomatoes based....pizza sauce, ketchup, pasta sauce....never quite seems to shift thoroughly...

Soak the stain in remover straight away on both sides. If the stain is blood (my daughter recently had her HPV injection and it soaked onto her white school shirt) always wash in COLD water.

Rust

Sharpies, blood and sweat. Sounds like a horror movie.

Felt tip pens!! These are the only stubborn stains I just can't seem to get out of school shirts. So annoying.

My nightmare stain is a curry stain. I ruined one of my favourite tops by getting just a small splash on it and however hard I tried to remove it, I failed. I eventually tried something which got some of the stain out, but also took some of the colour out so now it looks even more stupid than it did with a curry stain on it!!

Tomato ketchup!

I find blood and acrylic type paint most troublesome

Red wine. I can never get this all out!

Egg yolk and spaghetti hoops

Tomato based stains on white clothing!

Sun tan lotion can be a night mare and ruins clothes.
