Step 2: Baking Soda Bliss

Now, sprinkle a dash of baking soda onto the stained region. Baking soda is like the sidekick that comes in to enhance the cleaning power. It acts as a gentle abrasive, aiding in the removal of the remaining stain particles. Give it a little scrub, but don't be too harsh – we want to rescue your clothing, not rough it up!

Step 3: Set It And Forget It!

Allow your garment to rest in a bright, sunny area for at least 1 hour. The sunshine will help to bleach your garment, further whitening your clothes while killing off any bacteria. Win-Win!

Step 4: Wash & Dry

Wash your garment as usual, per the washing instructions provided on the care tag. If the stain persists when you pull your clothing out from the wash, repeat these steps again BEFORE drying the garment. Once the stain has been fully lifted, dry the garment.

Step 5: Victory Lap

Voila! Your white garment should be noticeably whiter and free from those pesky yellow stains.

There you have it, stain-busters extraordinaire! With Blue Dawn Dish Soap, Hydrogen Peroxide, and Baking Soda by your side, yellow stains on white clothing are a thing of the past. So go ahead, flaunt your stain-free whites with confidence – you've earned it!
