Soak it in real ** lemon juice or rub with half a lemon** and hang in the sun for an hour or so or leave over night then a good hot wash.......be careful of too many products on the same area or it will destroy the material...... |

I'd give Fairy another go, scratching it into the stain and leaving overnight. |

Next time soak them in cold water before washing and the stains should come out. |

Thank you for the suggestions, we have tried the milk, fairy, meth ,dygon, stain devil, hand cleaner, and the usual household stain removers and bleach, without any luck its the fact that its been in a hotwash I think that has set it. |

You beat me to it Annina. I use milk for a variety of stains, sometimes add a little dash of washing up liquid & rub until stain is gone. |

Mrs Mayfield brought back some school shirts from one of my Daughters that had got "water based" pen on them unfortunatly they have been through a wash and tumble dry so chances are the stain has set. |
