Off white cotton shabbos dress. Already been washed, hung to dry and stains didn’t come out. Sprayed with oxi maxforce, let it sit and washed again. Still didn’t come out. Please post your best tips! Thanks!

Is it oily? Rub in dish soap let it sit then wash.

If your not sure wet, spray De-Solve it let it sit then wash.

Curious to know what De-Solver is. Is it a heavy duty grease remover?
I use St. Moritz degreaser with great results. Spray and let it sit for a few hours.
I've used it for greasy heavy chulent spots that I forgot to wash for a long long time. I washed it cold water. To my great surprise it came out perfectly clean Surprised

Sorry it’s De Solve It https://www.amazon.com/Solv-11.....r=8-3
Yes it’s strong but not as strong as st Moritz which I’m afraid to handle. I use this on only very tough stains.

Would this work for food stains that aren’t oil?

Thanks it may be oily. But at this point it’s been washed twice already so doesn’t seem oily anymore. Do you think I can use easy off? I don’t have at moritz.

If it’s a good stain regardless if its oily I find that dish soap (I use dawn) works usually.

Update:
I sprayed it with easy off and the stains came out of the machine darker…

Wondering what else can be done. I once tried putting lemon juice on a white dress and let it sit in the sun and it really worked! Wondering if it will bleach off white?

Any other tips would be very much appreciated.

If it's all one color white or off white, you may want to use Rit color remover. Follow the stovetop instructions.

In the future, treat stains early with Dawn on wet garment and baby the stains until they come out.
