May not be the best place but hopefully you can assist me.

I've just dogged my 2 MTB jerseys out of the cupboard (I haven't worn them in a month or so as ive moved) and noticed they have dirt stains on them (on the White sections of a dakine multicoloured Jersey)

Is there a way to get stains out, considering I washed them already after their last use.

Obviously it's my fault for not checking and for buying white jerseys but if there's a way to look like I haven't already been riding when I turn up at the trails I'd be very grateful for your tips.

Good luck with that!! I wore my yellow/black P/H jersey on the Brecon Beast last year and splattered it in every shade of mud - washed and worn it countless times since and it is still covered in splatter - albeit slightly faded now!

At the end of the day it's not the end of the world if I cant, I just like the fresh look, I may just have to prefer the I ride all the time look but would prefer if people have a good tip.

Scrub in a bit of vanish and it should break it down after a couple of washes assuming you have not tried this already ?

If your nan is still alive just give it to her. There's nothing a nan can't wash successfully biggrin

I've given up - I'm sure they're only designed to look good once...

I buy all my stuff in dark colours now, but I had a lovely One Industries XC set from my Wife for Xmas that looks wrecked now, despite keeping them "for best" ha ha.

Are you married, have a girlfriend, have a sister a mother or another female in you life? If so get them to do it. This is pistonheads, a man cave for many "like minded souls" not "our souls" with a dirty top, ahhh bless, now go get the bh to clean it for you and man up dude! ( tongue in cheek by the way, so don't start kicking off wink
