Sunscreen stains out of white clothes??

Reagan's Mommy

Help!  I went to do laundry yesterday, and say that some of R's white shirts have yellow sunscreen stains on them.  I tried pre-treating and soaking overnight with oxyclean, and it didn't help.

Anything else, or are the shirts pretty much ruined?

You could try scrubbing with Dawn.  Sunscreens are often greasy, so it might work better to treat it like a grease stain.

Thanks!  I'll give that a try.

I have used RIT color remover with success.  It is for white clothes but will not "eat" them the way that bleach will.
