Underarm yellow spots can ruin your mood and your favorite clothes. Getting rid of them is easier than it seems at first glance. It is enough to use the advice given in this article.

What causes underarm spots

Usually, increased sweating is observed in those who suffer from certain diseases, are overweight, dress in clothes that are too warm or made of synthetics. If sweat stains on the clothes of athletes during training do not cause negative emotions in anyone, then, for example, office employees in clothes with sweat traces do not look very presentable.

Now, in order to get rid of sweat stains on clothes, you do not need to make special efforts - washing machines and various powders are at the service of mankind. But in some cases, they are also useless - for example, many people avoid wearing white and tight clothes in hot weather, for fear of the appearance of yellow spots. Indeed, white clothes are susceptible to sweat and quickly become stained, especially in the armpits and collar, but should not be abandoned.

On things of bright colors, the spots are not so noticeable - usually only their contours are visible after drying. By the way, the substances that make up deodorants contribute to the appearance of stains - contrary to popular belief, they do not block the secretion of sweat, but only remove the unpleasant odor.

Fresh stains can be easily removed during normal washing - it is advisable to use powder with bleach for washing white items. But if more than a few days have passed, then the usual powder may not cope with yellow stains - you will have to use other means to eliminate them. Black clothes can also be a problem - they often have white spots from deodorants.

Stain removers

Stain removers in the form of soap are good for cleaning clothes from yellow stains. Rub the yellow spots with soap and leave the item for several hours. After that, the clothes are washed in the washing machine. You can also use whiteness - a small amount of it is applied to stains, the clothes are poured with cold water and left for an hour. After that, the thing is washed in a typewriter. It should be borne in mind that whiteness is an aggressive agent that thinns the fabric, so you can resort to this method only when you need to remove old stains that appeared more than a month ago.

Hydrogen peroxide

If the stains are light, regular hydrogen peroxide will do the trick. It needs to treat the entire surface of the stains - you can use a napkin for application. After that, the thing must be rinsed and hung up to dry - preferably in the sun.

Ammonia and gasoline

Old stains can be removed with ammonia and gasoline. First, the stain must be treated with gasoline, and then wiped well with a sponge or napkin dipped in an ammonia solution. The contours of the stains must be carefully finished, otherwise they will reappear. After processing, things are washed with powder. It may take several washes to get rid of the smell of gasoline and ammonia.

You can remove stains with ammonia.

Table salt and ammonia

Yellow stains from cotton and linen fabrics can be easily removed with table salt and ammonia. First you need to dissolve a teaspoon of alcohol and salt in a glass of water, and then treat the stain with the resulting product. Then the clothes should be rinsed in warm water and washed.

Plain and ammonia

You can mix regular alcohol and ammonia in equal parts, apply on the stain and leave for 10-15 minutes. If the solution evaporates quickly and the fabric begins to dry, you need to reapply and repeat the treatment. After that, the spots should disappear. To make the smell disappear from your clothes, it is recommended to wash them in plenty of cold water.

Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid)

Sweat stains are easily removed with an acetylsalicylic acid solution. To prepare the solution, you need to grind two aspirin tablets into powder and stir in half a glass of water (warm). In this solution, you need to moisten a napkin and then wipe the stain. After processing, things should be washed in the usual way.

Salt

You can remove sweat stains from silk items with table salt. Dissolve a tablespoon of salt in a glass of water and wipe the stain with a cloth soaked in the solution. The thing should lie down for a while, and then it should be rinsed in boiled warm water. In addition to the fact that the spots will disappear, the thing will also acquire a shine, and the colors will become brighter.

Denatured alcohol and chicken yolk

You need to mix chicken yolk with denatured alcohol, apply to the stain. The solution should be kept for a long time so that it dries and a crust forms. Then you need to scrape off the crust with an iron nail file or a non-sharp knife. If you can't get rid of it, you can soak a cotton swab in warm glycerin. Then wash the clothes in the washing machine.

Leather is a favorite material for clothing, footwear, and furniture upholstery. How to clean a leather product so that it retains its original appearance?

We clean correctly

The first thing that comes to mind if you need to clean a leather jacket is to have it dry cleaned. This option is good, but it takes time and money. At the same time, cleaning the jacket at home is quite affordable for every housewife.

First you need to decide on some fundamental points:

- type of material: genuine leather or eco-leather (synthetic leatherette),

- color and quality of skin coloration,

- type of spot.

All aggressive agents recommended on the Internet (alcohol, acetone, turpentine, ammonia) can only be used for genuine leather products with good color quality. Just in case, you should first rub with a cotton swab dipped in a solution, a sample of leather (usually attached to a new product) or a leather patch on the inside.

If everything is in order, then you can start cleaning your jacket or furniture. Rubbing alcohol is great for removing greasy stains and cleaning greasy collars and cuffs. Turpentine removes ink stains, and a mixture of turpentine, alcohol and glycerin helps to completely renew a product that has lost its brightness and shine.

For products made of eco-leather and leather with an unstable color, a mild dishwashing detergent is suitable (however, it will not harm natural leather products either) - this is a good way to remove grease and food stains. Unfortunately, ink and ink stains are not affected. Apply dishwashing detergent to the foam sponge, wipe the stains, leave for 15-20 minutes for exposure, wipe with a sponge with the detergent again and rinse thoroughly with clean water. After that, the product must be dried well.

Ink and paint stains can be removed with glycerin by rubbing it thoroughly into the stain. If the product is made of light leather, then the second stage will also be needed - after rubbing glycerin onto the stain, apply wet table salt and leave for a day. For white skin, use a mixture of table salt and baking soda.

In addition to folk remedies, there is a modern, but more expensive option - special stain remover sprays for leather, which are sold in shoe and leather stores.

After cleaning

So, the product is clean. However, having removed the stain, we are faced with a new nuisance: the product, if it had to be wet and dried, became hard and unpleasant to the touch.

Such effects of "bathing" the skin are eliminated by applying a protective-nourishing layer. Of the old proven remedies, these are glycerin and castor oil, with which the product is rubbed separately or with a mixture of them, left to soak for several hours, and then remove the remnants of the product with a soft cloth, polish it. This treatment not only makes the leather soft and shiny, but also makes it water-repellent.

The modern industry offers a wide arsenal of creams and balms for leather products. There are universal ones, and there are special ones - they differ in color, type of product, and skin thickness. The principle of their use does not change.

Proper care of a leather product is the key to its excellent appearance and long service life.
