hi guys,

after doing a white wash i've noticed a couple of stains on 2 of my partners shirts and can't think where they've come from:confused:

they look a bit like rust stains and i've tried everything to try and get them out to no avail.
i can't think where they've come from as one of the shirts has only been worn once and it wasn't on there before i washed them???? my washer is fairly new and i can't see any rust on t??

any ideas on what to use to remove them??

i've tried stardrops, washing up liquid and vanish!!!

thanks

    Hi elljay,

    This thread might help:

    "rusty" mark on shirts from washing

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