Default Canada Jersey + Coffee Stain = CP Help

So I pulled out my Canada Jersey to wear today, and there's a huge coffee stain on it.

How well will simply washing work to get it out?

Dry cleaners?

Oxyclean?

What do I do?

I am in no way a pro. at cleaning, but I don't think just washing it will do the trick. You'll need something stronger than a regular wash, especially since it isn't a fresh stain, but probably a pretty deep one now.

Use google, always works for me.

Oxy clean (or even the superstore equivalent) has worked well for stains in our house (2 year old and 5 year old).

You can soak it in a concentrated solution (in a bowl or sink) for a bit, and then wash it with a bit added to the wash.

Just tell everyone it was a Red Amber Ale spill and treat it as a battle scar in your quest to win Gold for Canada!

Coffee/Tea Stain on Nylon
Coloured, Printed or has Colour Trim


Before treating any garment, always first refer to the instructions on the care label.
1) Always make sure you protect coloured items by pretesting the effects of stain removal techniques on a hidden area of the garment.
2) Use a spot remover or take the item to a professional dry cleaner for treatment.
3) Using a PLASTIC bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use TideŽ for every 3.8 litres of water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a WHITE towel to keep it totally submerged. Discard your soak solution appropriately when you're finished.
4) Wash in warm water with 1 use of TideŽ.
5) Let line or air dry. Repeat procedure, if necessary.
