perhaps have an already stained t shirt thats just worn or put over the top of good clothes while feeding/ I have to agree though some just doesnt come out

i like the vanish in a stick rather than the powder or liquid.

i give the stain a really good rubbing with the vanish and that seems to do the trick.
i've not used it on coloured clothes but on whites miltons seems to also work well i found.

Also another tip is to treat the stain asap. don't let it dry on. if you can vanish it asap then i have found i get better results this way.

er - at home I used to strip them! bung on an old vest or t-shirt and let them go for it!
and with the cotton vests and t-shirts a squirt of good old bleach on the stain, wash and the stain disappeared (will now dodge angry posters complaining about my using bleach on baby clothes - in my defense I always made sure the clothes were well rinsed and any niff of bleach and they went back in the wash!).

How is the food getting on the clothes if you're using a big bib? We use a long-sleeved bib (roll up clothing sleeves first so they're nowhere near the wrists in case a bit of food gets up the cuffs) - the bib is quite long and sits over the baby's lap when she's sat in the highchair. On top of this, we use a neoprene "Bibetta" bib which fits snuggly round her neck and has a fold-over catchy bit. The only way food could get onto her clothes would be if she was to get her hands really mucky and wipe them on her trousers but even doing baby led weaning, that never really happened. As soon as the meal is over, I wipe her hands and face before removing the bibs.

Thanks for all your tips and suggestions.

I don't know how he gets food everywhere when wearing a big bib, he's like a magician, he can also magic his arms out of the high chair straps which is more of a worry than the stains! He also doesn't mind the odd little orange puke every now and then as soon as the bibs removed!
