    Stardrops got red wine out of my OH's shorts. :grin:

    However, I would try Oxy powder stuff for colours. I've used the one for whites on my t-shirts and OH's shirts and they come up like new from a pale shade of grey :rolleyes:

    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Have you tried stardrops? I find they work great on unidentifyable ancient stains, although I can't say what those stains were in the first place. I tried using neat stardrops on loads of old clothes as a last ditch attempt to avoid reincarnating them as rags... most of the stains came out.

    I'll try that first I think. I've got Stardrops. :D

    SUNSHINE is good for removing curry stains..... if its about!!!!!! and its free
    Line dry after washing with any of the above suggestions in the sunlight should help. Good luck.

    that ecover thingy with it's own brush effort on top is pretty good -it would help if you could vaguely tell us what caused the stain - I have an a-z stain guide book and from what I can remember it's pretty crucial to know if the stain is alkaline, acid or oil based

    how long have you been clinging on to 39 pray tell ... 4th year running for me
