Vinegar solution

Vinegar is used to dye fabrics, so nothing threatens the product. To remove traces of deodorant, use a 9% solution, not the essence, in it the concentration of the active substance is too high (70-95%). Fold the cheesecloth in 4-5 layers, moisten it with a copious amount of vinegar and apply on the spots. Pour a little more solution on top to saturate the fabric well.

Wait about half an hour, rinse your shirt and look at the result. If the effect does not suit you, soak the armpits again, leave for 1 hour. Complete the machine wash with the addition of air conditioning. Dry on the balcony avoiding direct exposure to the sun.

Tar soap

Moisten a T-shirt / shirt with plenty of warm water. Rub it with tar soap so that the stain has a characteristic brown tint. Carefully fold the product and place it in a plastic bag, then tie it so that oxygen does not enter there. Wait 2 hours.

At this time, start preparing the rinse solution. Rub a quarter of a bar of tar soap on a coarse grater. Pour it with 3 liters of hot water, mix and wait until the composition becomes homogeneous. Remove the product from the bag, dip it in a pre-cooled solution, rinse thoroughly. Pay proper attention to the spots, rub them with your hands. Complete the machine wash by setting the temperature mode appropriate for the type of fabric.

Lemon

Cut the peel from two citrus fruits, pass the fruits through a meat grinder or use a blender. At the exit, you should get a liquid porridge. Lay the product on a flat surface so that you can clearly see the deodorant marks.

Put the mixture on the spots, rub thoroughly, put on top of the cling film and squeeze. Leave the composition for 1-3 hours, depending on the degree of contamination. At the end of the period, remove the lemon mixture and evaluate your efforts. Repeat if necessary.

Soda and salt

Prepare a solution for pre-soaking. To do this, pour 2.5 liters of hot water into the basin, add 250 g. salt, wait for dissolution. Put the product in the container, wait at least half an hour. At this time, start preparing the main mixture. Take 70 gr. soda, 10 ml. vinegar and 60 gr. fragrance-free salts. Mix them together, add a small amount of filtered water to make the mixture viscous.

Lay the item on a flat surface, distribute the composition on the spots. Make a dense layer through which air will not pass. Wait 25 minutes. After the time, rinse the product with warm water, evaluate the result. If stains remain, rub them with laundry soap and leave for half an hour. After that, wash your shirt with your hands or load the machine.

Borax

To prepare the mixture, purchase borax powder. Mix 35 gr. borax with 45 ml. kefir, pour 30 ml. table vinegar (concentration 9%), add 50 ml. lemon juice. Apply on deodorant stains, wait 35 minutes.Remove the composition with a paper towel, stretch the product in warm water, paying attention to the armpit area. In cases where the traces are not completely eliminated, repeat the steps, but increase the amount of borax powder to 60 g. If the composition is dry, dilute it with kefir to obtain a viscous consistency.

Dishwashing liquid

Spread the item on a flat surface, take a thick dishwashing detergent (Fairy). Apply it evenly on the spots and leave for 10 minutes. Wash the product with your hands, if necessary, carry out the procedure another 1-2 times. In order not to discolor clothing in the area where the product is used, dry the product in fresh air, but not in direct sunlight.

If the fabric has not changed color, feel free to proceed with further manipulations. Moisten the area of ​​contamination with ammonia, leave for a quarter of an hour. Wash the item with your hands. If the result does not please you, repeat the procedure again. Finish stain removal by machine wash, otherwise the alcohol will remain in the fabric structure.
