Who ever had a pen stain -ball on his clothes?
A pen is leaking in Monsieur's shirt pocket.
Your child begins to write and puts as much on the paper as on his t-shirt.
An unfortunate gesture... And presto, your dress is baptized! And in addition, it is difficult to remove, because washing in the washing machine is rarely enough!
So here is an easy and effective trick to remove ballpoint pen stains from your clothes.
To remedy this problem, there is a simple and completely unknown solution:simply milk!
1. Soak the stain with milk before put your garment in the washing machine.
2. Leave on for a few minutes.
3. Machine wash your laundry.
There you go, the ink stain has disappeared from your garment :-)
If the stain persists a little, you can rub it lightly with a white cloth soaked in hydrogen peroxide, then wash your garment normally.
Commercial stain removers, such as Vanish, are certainly effective, but very aggressive for the fiber of the fabric. But above all they are very expensive and not at all economical.
By using milk, or at the limit a little hydrogen peroxide, you no longer need to spend your money on these overpriced products.
Some of us even go so far as to drop off our clothes at the dry cleaners to be sure to remove the smallest stain.
And there, hello the bill... while there is our very simple trick that will save you money.
