Good luck!
Depends on the stain and the fabric and how long it has been setting. Google "natural stain removers" and you should be able to narrow it down. Usually between peroxide, rubbing alcohol, white vinegar or baking soda you can get it done.
Clorox 2 and Dawn dish cleaner are both good for stains
Another thing that hasn't been mention yet is lemon juice. Sometimes that's all you need to remove a clothing stain. Letting us know what kind of stain it is really helps. The more information we have the better we can help.
3/4 cup cold water. 3Tbs. Corn starch. 4 to 7 Tbs. household bleach. In a medium sauce pan combine cold water and starch together over medium heat stirring constantly. Be sore to use cold water. Corn starch will thicken the stain remover. Bring to boil stirring continuously until it becomes trans lucent and pudding like. Remove from heat and cool completely.
Once mix is cold add bleach by the table spoon until you have the consistency and strength you desire about 5 tbs. This mix can be stored in a squirt type bottle...a smaller one. This is a bleach solutiion.
no bleach 1tbs baking soda. 4 Tbs dish soap. 8 Tbs hydrogen peroxide. Combine all ina small jar and stir to combine. Allow stain remover to sit for at least 15 min. Or up to 1hour.
no bleach stain remover...hydrogen peroxide 3 percent strength 3/4 cup. 1/4 cup lemon juice. 10- 15 drops lemon essential oil. 3/4 cup baking soda. 7 cups water. Combine all. Store in a half gal. Container. Use 1 cup per load. Wash in hottest water water setting available.
