Large Blood Stain

[redman41]

I had a Nose Bleed whilst asleep and have ended up with a large stain in a prominent place on the front of my shirt. I have managed to get rid of most of it but there is still a noticeable mark left.
Can anyone recommend a good remover ?
Thanks

Vanish? Or if you can find it, Amway stain remover spray, but that's sold not in the shops. Spray on and leave to soak in.
Are you OK?

Thank you all for your input ! I will try again with Vanish or something similar so hopefully that should get rid of it.
I feel fine, it was just one of those things which happens only occasionally, probably once a Year. I will live to fight another day as they say !! :-)))

Always immerse bloodstains in several changes of cold water, asap but even if some time after the bleed. This allows water to penetrate and lift the blood cells. Even warm water cooks the red blood cells causing them to fix to the fibres of the fabric and become a total beggar to remove.
So, keep soaking in cold water and also rub neat laundry liquid into the stain prior to soaking. Literally leave in a bucket of cold water for a couple of days, then into washing machine.

yep if you washed it in warm water it will be a b1tch to get out now

Thanks for the tips once again as all ideas welcome. Have sprayed the stain with Vanish and left to soak so hopefully I can get rid. Good job I didn't use Hot water initially.

Try Almat Oxi-fix from Aldi. It got rid of all my unsightly stains on teatowels, just soak overnight. Good luck!
