you're clever aren't you.. icon_rolleyes.gif that's where he came from ... icon_lol.gif

they did a thing on mythbusters where they used urine to remove stains..

they boiled it down to concentrate it..

it's actually the amonia in the pee that gets the stains out.. try some of that..

my advice would be:


Old Perspiration

Washable Fabrics

Dissolve 15 ml (one tablespoon) of white distilled vinegar in 250 ml (half a pint) of warm water and sponge stain, then wash as normal. If smell remains, soak the article in a solution of one teaspoon of borax dissolved in one pint of warm water. Wash as normal and hang out to dry.


Non Washable Fabrics

Carefully sponge with the vinegar solution used above, do not allow to become too wet, then take to dry-cleaners.

If you can get hold of it some Napisan will do the trick - it can be used as a pre-soak/wash or just added to the detergent in your washing machine.
