How do I get 15 years of nicotine out of this sweater? My uncle said my aunt wanted me to have it; she passed away 15 years ago. The sweater has been on the top shelf in a closet in the room where my uncle sat, watched TV, and smoked 4 packs a day. Is there any chance of saving my aunt's sweater?

Have you laundered it? Or, taken it to the drycleaners if it is dryclean only? I would try that first.
I wouldn't suggest washing in Gain & Bleach...It doesn't work at all.
I plan to try baking soda & cider vinegar next & see if that works.
They are cotton shirts
You don't say what it's made of, what color it is, if it's machine washable, hand wash only, or what. So it's hard to know what to tell you.
Tried this on a red and white striped night shirt. Worked great, had to soak twice because the stain was so bad.
Thanks you for this great idea.
Use O-Do-Ban concentrate add 10% to a spray bottle and fill with distilled H2O. Spray idem all over from a distance let dry. This is an enzyme eradicator. It does not cover odors.
