How to Remove Perspiration Stains

Step 1: Soap
Wet the stain and rub the area with a bar of soap. Rinse.

Step 2: Salt
If the soap doesn't work, add salt right on the stain and rinse again.

Step 3: Baking Soda
For more stain-fighting power, make a paste out of baking soda and water. It should be the consistency of peanut butter. Apply it to the stain and let it sit for 30 minutes before rinsing.

Step 4: White Vinegar
If your stain is extra stubborn, mix a quarter-cup of white vinegar with three gallons of water. Soak your shirt in the mixture for another 30 minutes and then rinse. White vinegar doesn't always mix with silk, linen or wool, so read your shirt label.

Step 5: Wash
Put your shirt in the wash. Remember, putting clothing in the dryer will set a stain, so try to get it out completely before washing.
