Build Your Back-to-School Laundry Stain Kit

Keep a small kit by the washer or mudroom so clean-up is easy when everyone gets home:

  • Quick ’n Brite Liquid Concentrate — for spot-treating and as a laundry booster
  • Quick ’n Brite Cleaning Paste — clings to fibers for set-in and oily stains
  • Pink Scrubber Sponge — gentle scrubbing without scratching
  • Microfiber cloths — for blotting, lifting, and drying
“Grass stains on white baseball pants used to stress me out. This simple routine made them a non-issue.”

Quick Spill Response After Practice

Stop stains before they set—right at the door:

  • Blot, don’t rub. Remove excess first to avoid pushing stains deeper.
  • Use a mild solution of Liquid for fresh, water-based stains; dab from the edges toward the center.
  • For oily or sticky messes, apply a thin layer of Cleaning Paste, wait 10 minutes, then rinse and launder.

Stain-by-Stain Playbook

Grass stains (soccer, field hockey, outfield)

Pre-wet the area. Massage a thin layer of Cleaning Paste into the fibers. Let sit 10–15 minutes, rinse, then wash. Repeat before drying if a green tint remains.

Red clay & mud (infield, track)

Let mud dry and brush off loose dirt. Dab with a mild Liquid solution for 10 minutes, rinse, then wash. For clay shadows, follow with a light layer of Cleaning Paste, rinse, and rewash.

Sweat & deodorant buildup (underarms, collars)

Spread a thin layer of Cleaning Paste over the area and work in gently. Let sit 15 minutes, wash, and air-dry. Add a small amount of Liquid to the wash as a booster for dingy buildup.

Protein stains (blood, chocolate milk)

Use cold water only. Apply Cleaning Paste, wait 10–15 minutes, rinse cold, then wash cool. Air-dry and repeat if needed.

Sports drinks & fruit dyes (sideline spills)

Flush with cool water. Dab a mild Liquid solution from the outside in. If a tint remains, add a light layer of Cleaning Paste, wait 10 minutes, rinse, then wash.

Sunscreen & tinted SPF (dark jerseys)

Scrape away excess. Apply Cleaning Paste, wait 10 minutes, rinse, then wash warm if the care label allows. Repeat before drying if you see a halo.

Snack stains (barbecue sauce, ketchup, chocolate, energy gels)

Scrape gently. Rinse from the back of the fabric with cool water. Apply Cleaning Paste, wait 10 minutes, rinse, and launder. Check before drying.

Ink & marker (signing team balls, labeling gear)

Test an inside seam for colorfastness. Blot with a mild Liquid solution using a microfiber cloth, lifting the ink onto the cloth. Repeat with fresh sections, then wash.

Keep Uniforms & Gear Fresh

  • Poly jerseys and performance fabrics: keep contact time short; blot more than you scrub.
  • Numbered jerseys and screen prints: treat inside-out and go gentle over graphics.
  • Backpacks, duffels, and lunch boxes: spot test; wipe with a mild Liquid solution and a microfiber cloth, then air-dry.
  • Shoes and cleats: wipe soles and uppers with a mild Liquid solution; use Cleaning Paste for scuffs, then wipe clean.

Quick ’n Brite is designed to clean effectively without harsh bleach or phosphates. Rinse well and spot test if sensitivity is a concern.

Can I treat backpacks, duffels, and lunch boxes?
