Removing rust stains
1
Remove excess
To start with, brush the excess rust off with a toothbrush or other soft bristled brush.
2
Dilute the rust
Dilute the rust stain by rinsing it under running cold water. The higher the water pressure, the easier it will be to remove any excess stain.
3
Soak
In a plastic bucket, create a soaking solution with 3 tablespoons of baking soda and cold water, and let the garment soak for up to 30 minutes.
4
Pour
Pour Ariel Liquid Detergent directly onto the stain, enough to completely cover the stain. You can pour from either the bottle or the cap.
5
Load
Without washing off the detergent, place the garment into the washing machine with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will boost your wash performance.
6
Dose
The cap is also a dosing device. Just fill it with the correct dose of detergent and place it directly into your washing machine drum, on top of the clothes.
7
Wash
Wash with the usual cycle, at the highest indicated temperature. Always make sure to follow the instructions on the garment’s care label.
8
Unload
After the wash cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately.
