Answer 2

My boss just showed me this trick. He has some really nice white shirts, and they started to turn yellow, still yellow after the dry cleaners. So he found a store that sells BIZ, yes the old fashion laundry soap. Wash as normal, with a 30 minute soak cycle. If your machine doesn't have a soak cycle,just let it fill and start to agitate, then turn it off for 30 minutes, then just turn it back on. He showed me the shirts, WOW, were they white!

Answer 3

Try using a little shampoo.

Wet the collars and add a bit of shampoo to them. Rub and scrub them untill they are clean then rinse. You might have to let them set for a while.

Answer 4

~~I use white vinegar on any kind of stains like that.  It breaks down body stains better than anything I've used. Spray it right on the stain, let it sit 15 minutes or so then wash. I also add vinegar to my bleach compartment on all whites and linens. It makes whites whiter. The best secret for whites is to double rinse them. So if you can, set your machine for a second rinse, if not you can set it back to rinse before completion. This makes sure your whites are really clean, the vinegar keeps soap build up, and everything comes out fresh and clean. You will not have vinegar odor either-so don't worry about that. You don't even need softener-the vinegar does that too, but I still use it for the nice scent it leaves. For your shirts, just wash as you normally do with the added vinegar and rinse, you'll be very white collared again!~~

Answer 5

That brown stain is sweat.

To remove that  mix Clorox 2 NOT BLEACH with ammonia and soak for 30 minutes then wash in the hottest water safe for that fabric.
