I've tried vinegar, but it hasn't worked yet. The chances are very good
I'm doing it wrong, though. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as
I'm running out of shirts to wear!

What deodorant would you recommend? I've tried almost all of them.

Hi Brian,
I would tend to try ammonia before trying an acid treatment. It doesn't
really matter which way round you do it though. Household ammonia should do
in a 20% solution added directly to the aera. If that's not c ompletely
successful then add hydrogen peroxide to the area while the ammonia is still
there (the ammonia will speed up the reaction of the hydrogen peroxide so be
careful of colour change).
Hope this helps

Just a plain deodorant. Not an anti-persperant.
If that isn't an option, there is a product called "Yellow Out" that
works very well. I've used it on both my husband and son's white
t-shirts. It's in a container similar to "Rust Out" and can be found
in most large stores.

I think ammonia is recommended for fresh stains and vinegar if they're
older, but a dryer may set them permanently.
I have a couple of khaki shirts with yellow armpits, and it occurred to
me to try your old tip about ammonia and peroxide. The peroxide foamed
a lot but in an hour didn't seem to make any difference. The trick is
to turn off fluorescent lights. The stains don't show under
incandescents.
