Just found LISTINGS:1" rel="nofollow">THIS, hope it's useful.

Neat bleach might have ruined them, you may have bleached the white out. I read that somewhere, not sure if it's true though

Oooh just found this NAPISAN

This thread might give you some ideas: Removing Suncream stains

I'll add your thread to that one later to keep the replies together.

You can get specific stain removers for different types of stains -fruit based, grease based , ink etc. One of them says it works on suncream and I found it quite good

aliasojo

Brilliant Troo, thank you!

I'll try that as soon as I can get to the shops for a Stain Devil.

Fingers crossed. (I'll just have to hope the bleach thing didn't stuff it all up, lol.)

aliasojo

Oh you all type fast around here.

*waves* to Pink.

I remember Napisan! Might get that too.

Have you tried the white Oxiclean as it worked well on some school shirts that had gone grey!!!

aliasojo

Ok....so I'll need a trolley instead of a basket when I go to Tesco? :rotfl:

Will add that to my hitlist elona, thanks.

I've just got sun cream stains out of my grandaughters white cotton dress by soaking it in a bowl full of diluted bleach. Don't be tempted to pour neat bleach on the stain though as this will turn it yellow. I've soaked it for about 4 hours now and the stains have almost gone. I think with a bio wash it should be fine.

Hope this will be useful for someone else.
