How to get black stains out?

Joan
by Joan

I washed white sheets in a front loader and one sheet when pulled out of wash apparently during wash cycle got caught in the gasket and now there is black stain on sheet. I tried peroxide and dish detergent scrubbed with baking soda shout stain gel bleach. I am having no luck with this coming out. Even soaked it for 1 hour.

    If it's greasy, try Dawn dish detergent and yee a toothbrush. Then 5hrow it in the machine, Dawn and all.

    Hi Joan,

    It sounds like you've hit most of the basics except maybe old-fashioned bleach. :( One thing you might try would be to soak the spot in lemon juice then put it in the sun to dry. No guarantees but it might work. Another option would be to contact the washing machine manufacturer to see if they have any ideas. Wishing you the best.

    Try using WD40 and a toothbrush on the stain. Brush from outside in so not to spread the stain.

    Agree with Linda try using some bleach. Good question for the manufacturer of your dryer.
