You’re getting ready in the morning and you get toothpaste all down your top. Toothpaste stains sometimes contain dyes, which can affect the fabric, and also titanium dioxide powder, which makes the toothpaste white and can also make it difficult when it comes to removing toothpaste stains. You’ll want to act fast and remove toothpaste stains as soon as possible, and use a washing detergent, like Ariel, with bleaching agents and enzymes. Follow our Ariel stain solutions and tips for toothpaste stain removal.
Removing toothpaste stains
1
Remove excess
Scrape off any excess toothpaste before rinsing the garment under warm, running water.
2
Pre-treat
Pour Ariel Original Washing Liquid directly onto the toothpaste stain.
3
Load
Without rinsing off the liquid detergent, place the garment into the wash with similar items. Leaving the washing detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.
4
Dose
You can also use the pre-treat cap to ensure you use the right amount of liquid detergent. Just fill it with the correct dose of washing detergent and place it directly into your washing machine’s drum, on top of your dirty laundry.
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.
