Two days ago I saw that one of my favourite shirts has mold stains. So far I've soaked it in 1:1 water and vinegar, dilute colorsafe bleach, and detergent separately for a few hours each. That might've killed the mold but the stains aren't coming off. I rubbed powdered detergent on the shirt and left it in the sun for a few hours then scrubbed it with a toothbrush but the stains are still there.

Do you guys know of any good ways to remove mold stains?

I don't have an answer for you, but my dry cleaner used to hollar at me when I wouldn't talk to them before trying to remedy a stain multiple ways myself. She would tell me the more things i tried the less likely it was she could help because i'd helped set the stain by trying unsuccessful methods to clean the garment. Take it to your cleaners. Worst case, you decide not have them do anything. Best case, they're able to get it done.

Ah shoot hahah I hope I didn't make things worse. I'll try asking tomorrow if they can remedy this. Thank you!

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
