I have an outfit that I wear to the gym ECT but it's yellowed in patches, how can I restore it to the original white colour. This outfit has badges with colours and bkack writing.

I use the Vanish pre wash spray- spray it on the stains 5 mins before putting it into the wash and it should do the trick...

I tried that and it's OK but not 110% yet, any other ideas.

I use the vanish power on the yellow stains under the arms of my work shirts. This is caused by the aluminium in deoderants.

Follow the instructions for a pre-soak. Coloured - about an hour, whites - overniight (although I havent found any problem with soaking whites with a bit of colour on the collars etc, overnight).

Sometimes it might need a second soak, but then comes up lovely.

Then I switched to non-aluminium deoderants.
