Generally, i just throw whatever she stained in the wash and hope for the best. Usually resulting in me letting her use said stained item of clothing as painting gear or just simply throwing it out.
Yesterday she had on a new shirt, grey and white stripes, and decided that on the way home from day care she HAD to have the Jello she didn't eat out of her lunch box. Of course, I told her to wait until we got home because I didn't have a spoon for her, but since I am not starring at her while I drive, she managed to get it open and go crazy. Like, she literally ate more than half the cup of Jello, without a spoon and damn near licked the cup clean while she was at it. Jello is not like applesauce so that took some talent lol.
Anyway, it was all over her face, neck and shirt. BRIGHT RED and all the way through. I knew for sure this shirt was going in the trash, but since it was new I thought I'd give the Tide Stain Release I purchased a little while ago a try.
I took the shirt off of her right when we got home, and then sprayed the Tide on the stain directly, folded the shirt up so that all the goodness could soak in and let it sit for about 15 mins.
Next, I rinsed the shirt out, sprayed some more Tide Stain Release, gave it another 30 minutes or so and then rinsed it again. After that I put some laundry detergent on the shirt, rubbed it in and let it sit for a few hours.
Before going to bed I rinsed the shirt out and told myself I probably wasted my time because
that stain was not going anywhere, and BOOM! to my surprise the stain was GONE!!!
Tide Stain Release has my vote!
