    The wife has tried getting poo stains from our babies cotton nappies, she tried a few different products like Ace bleach, stain remover from Dylon but the stains are still there, anyone offer any advice as to how to shift the stains, they don't look good hanging on the line or the clothes horse.

    I used to soak mine in napisan until there was a bucket full then wash them at the highest temperature on the washing machine. I remember my mum boiling nappies on the stove!

    I'd recommend soaking in Napisan, followed by a very hot wash, followed (weather permitting) by drying outside on the line.

    Good luck!

    Is Napisan safe to use on different coloured baby clothes, or is it only safe on white?
