How to remove sweat and pit stains from clothing

Sweat, deodorant and antiperspirant stains are really tough to remove. To remove them effectively, you will need to pre-treat.

Sweat and deodorant can cause greasy stains and Ariel liquid detergent has surfactants that helps remove greasy stains and residues. Follow the instructions below and get rid of those pesky sweat and deodorant stains in the 1st go.

Everyone sweats. And everyone wears clothes. So it’s perfectly natural that clothes pick up sweat stains. The workout was good, but the discoloured, pit stains left behind definitely aren’t.

Lemon was seen as the saviour of your sweaty clothes, but there is a better form of sweat stain removal that doesn’t involve experimenting - and Ariel knows how. Watch our step by step guide on how to get rid of sweat stains from clothing, or read the instructions below.

Removing sweat and pit stains

Pour

Pour Ariel Gel Detergent directly onto the sweat and detergent stain, enough to completely cover the stain. You can pour from either the bottle or the cap.

Pre-Treat

Spread the detergent over the stain with the pre-treat cap. The flexible fins of the cap can help spread the detergent over the surface of the stain as well as into the garment’s fibres.

Spot Pre-treat

Load

Without washing off the detergent, place the garment into the washing machine with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will boost your wash performance.

Dose

The cap is also a dosing device. Just fill it with the correct dose of detergent and place it directly into your washing machine drum, on top of the clothes.
