I have some stains in cotton shirts.
I usually soak them in washing powder, but this time it hasn't worked. I
can't remember what the stains are from.
Does it matter if I use bio or non-bio, or is there some other method that I
should use?
Thanks

Treat your shirt with 1-2 cups of charcoal lighter fluid. loosly roll it
into a ball and place it in the BBQ, at the base of the plie of
briquettes you will be cooking dinner with. Strike a match.......

I thought it was a funny way to say "give up on the stains."

If I want to waste time with an idiot trying to be funny, I'll visit my
relatives.

I do not find this amusing in the slightest. If you have no constructive
comments to make for the OP it would have been better all round to have kept
silent on the matter.
Try spraying hair-spray on the stain, then wash. I know hair spray
will remove ink stains--not sure if it will work for you, but worth a
try.--r3

well i'm an idiot too so i can't help you there <g>, but did you try a
proper laundry soaker? ordinary washing powder often works, but not always.
if you think the stains might be protein stains, make sure you use cold
water or they'll set with heat. if they're protein stains & you already
soaked them in hot, probably too late. on balance, might be best to soak in
cold in case. i believe the bio-types claim to be more effective, but the
product & methodology really does depend on what kind of stain you're
getting out, which you've forgotten, so you could easily have set them for
life already without knowing.
if i really liked the items but couldn't get the stains out, i'd consider
dying them dark to cover the stain, very easy. if i didn't really like them
that much & had tried the above already, i'd probably relegate them to rags.
either way, cotton shirts aren't the best barbeque-starters so you\re not
wrong there :-)
