  • Personally, l wouldnt both. Bub will just keep staining it anyway.


  • I treat most stains with the old fashioned sunlight soap block. Make the garment wet with piping hot water, rub the soap on the stain and then scrub it with a good hard brush. Rinse and repeat when necessary. I found this effective for almost all stains.


  • Make a paste out of water and napisan and rub it on the stain then wash.


  • I do a combination of Preen stain removal spray followed by a soak in Napisan. Might need repeating for stubborn stains. I’ve found Napisan to be brilliant for most stains


  • I try to spot clean immediately and then do a separate soak with the Aldi ‘Napisan’ before adding the clothes to the regular wash.

    I plan on checking out some of the other tips and suggestions. Everything tip helps!


  • Good question!


  • I usually spot clean the fabric with a little nappisan before I throw it in the wash!


  • I think soaking in a covered nappy bucket with some vanish may work!


  • You can use white vinegar or vanish napisan.


  • Good suggestions below- – hope something helped.


  • Napi san works for loads of stuff, or a vinegar soak maybe?


  • A little turps scrubbed on it, but you will need a really good wash to get the turps smell out afterwards.


  • Try eucalyptus oil on the stains


  • Okay bi card and white vinegar. If not a bleach for colours. ..


  • soak in warm water with a little bit of snow white


  • bi carb soda paste, or try using sunlight soap about $3 for a box of it. it gets nearly all staines out with a bit of a rub together


  • Apparently perfume works! specifically one called 4711 – weird stuff that, it even gets nail polish off!


  • I’ve always rubbed bicarb soda onto pumpkin stains.


  • Napisan is good and or bi-carb soda and vinegar works well as well, soak in hot water and then stick on the washing machine.


  • Dampen stained fabric and run Napisan into the stain. Then wash through the fabric with hot water – You will find the Napisan loosens the stain and it should come out pretty easily…
    It is also an idea to get to stains asap!
