Anyone with a tried and tested method to remove shirt collar stain?

Tried Kiwi brand and it didn't work.

I use a blue bar of soap, think it is called Magic Bar or something like that. Works wonders for the collar stains. Sorry, have used up the last piece at home, so not sure of the name. Can get it from NTUC, detergent area.

Of course must teach her lah! Otherwise, she only knows how to sweep, sweep, sweep the whole day! :lol:

Haha, don't employ a useless maid like mine, only knows how to sweep, sweep, sweep the whole day, better employ one that can multi-task!

Oops, we are getting a bit OT here! :oops:

Try Dynamo. Rub it on stain. Leave overnight. Wash with the rest of the clothes the next day.

Thanks both. :grphug:

Will try the Magic Bar first since it's probably cheaper than a big bottle of Dynamo.

Will it also work on soaks ?
DS2's soaks are usually as black as charcoal when he has concert band CCA..... think the music room is very dirty. :x

Any bar soap will do. Just rub the shirt collar or socks with the soap and use your hand to rub the sub deeper into the garment and leave for about half an hour before putting into the machine with other clothes. Much cheaper than using those stain remover etc. If the socks are too dirty, repeat the process.

Does anyone have any good remedy for removing old milo stains from clothes? Some of my kids’ clothes have very ugly stains caused by milo that they drink in school and the stains remain as they were not removed promptly at the next wash.
