How do you strip your BG Elementals?  We use them as our go-to overnight diaper but they have the stinkies.  Not really ammonia smell, not really barn yard.  I've soaked them in hot, hot water, washed and then washed again and they still stink.  We use vinegar in the wash...not sure what else to do.

I've only ever had to soak used diapers I've bought, but I've had really good luck soaking overnight in RnG.

I've stripped them with dawn.

I thought that vinegar made my diapers stink more.  I've also had good luck with an overnight soak of rockin green.  I've never used blue dawn on any of my diapers - I usually use Calgon to strip...

I've used the blue dawn. What I want to know is how to get the stains out. I've sunned them and the stains have a really hard time coming out. My other diapers seem to for the most part come clean sunning but not these things. They are stubborn! Anyone have any recs?

Natural fibers stain more than fleece or suedecloth. Try putting a splash of lemon juice on the stain, while they are still wet and hang them in the sun to dry. ETA: meant to quote hvanack & to the OP, blue dawn helps our BG Elementals.
