Chapstick stain after washing...

GSRBoy · 06-30-2008, 11:16 AM

Alright this may be out of place but I'm fucking annoyed at work right now. I washed my khakis and whites yesterday and accidentally left a stick of chapstick in a pants pocket. I get to work this morning and I have little stains all over the pant legs, like water has been sprinkled on them. I've looked on the internet and everyone seems to have a different opinion that works for some and doesn't for others. Just wondering if anyone in here had any advice. I think I'm going to go buy some Shout on my lunch break and soak them when I get home then wash them. These are expensive pants and I don't want them to be ruined dammit!

Didn't you go to college? Google what is in chapstick, like what its made of then google how to get whatever that is out of fabric. Come on man use the internets.

i'm guessing this is the problem:

Active ingredients Purposes
Octinoxate 7.5%
Octisalate 5%
Octocrylene 7%
Oxybenzone 5% Sunscreens
White petrolatum 30% Skin protectant

Try shout... might work. Once you dry them, it's hard to get shit outta them.

Try WD-40

There's a thread in this forum about it.

My wife just ruined about 10 tshirts of mine because of this.

got that bitch soaking in a tub of shout right now, will report back later tonight after it's done air drying

I would like to know if this works. I use Chapstick a lot and this may happen to me in the future since I am accident prone.

alright took them out late last night to air dry, dung them up, inspected them this morning and it looks like the stains are gone, I'll check again when I get home and have both natural and artificial light, as it seemed yesterday the stains were more noticeable under the lights in my office than outside. Until then I consider it a success woop!
