Dirt stains seem to appear from nowhere, and removing this particulate stain may seem difficult at first. When it comes to treating dirt, it’s important to treat the stain as soon as possible. Particulate stains are best removed using compounds known as “builders”, which help to soften the water during washes by removing positive metal ions in the water. This helps you remove dirt stains easily, so use a washing detergent like Ariel with this dirt stain removal ingredient. Follow the steps below and find out how to remove dirt stains from clothes.
Removing dirt stains
1
Remove excess
Let the dirt dry and then scrape off excess dirt stains as much as possible.
2
Pre-treat
Pour Ariel Original Washing Liquid directly onto the stain.
3
Load
Gently wring any excess water out of your clothes, before placing the garment into the wash with similar items.
4
Dose
Your Ariel pre-treat cap is also the perfect way to dose Ariel washing liquid detergent. Just fill with the correct dose and place the pre-treat cap directly into the drum of your washing machine, on top of your dirty clothes.
5
Wash
Wash on the usual cycle, on the hottest wash temperature indicated by the instructions on the garment’s care label.
6
Unload
When the cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately. Make sure the stain is completely gone after washing before placing in the dryer, as drying may set the stain.
Effective stain removal on a variety of stains
Ariel can help you see outstanding stain removal results for a variety of stains in the 1st wash, from outdoors stains like grass stains, tree sap stains or even oily road water stains from when that 4x4 splashed you.
