How to Clean Sun Tan Lotion From a Life Vest
- 1). Scrape the stain off of your life vest. Use a metal scraper from a fabric store or grocery store. A letter opener or metal nail filer is also a good way of removing the stain.
- 2). Pre-treat the stain. Use a stain remover spray, and follow the directions for applying the stain remover. Leave it on for at least 10 to 15 minutes in order for the product to work.
- 3). Put your life vest in the washing machine. Use a mild detergent and hot water to effectively remove the stain. If necessary, put the life vest in the clothes dryer.
- 4). Repeat the steps again if the stain does not come out. It could take some time to remove the stain depending on how deep, large or old the suntan lotion stain is.
