How do you remove White Out fluid from a cotton/polyester sweatshirt?
By Bonnie from Plantsville, CT
100% great advice for using WD-40 to remove white-out from clothes. I couldn't get it off my daughter's black pants at all, then I found this site and read about trying WD-40. I sprayed it, rubbed it, rinsed it and yes, the white out was gone! I love this site! (01/31/2010)

I used WD-40 to get white out liquid out of my brown polyester pants. I thought they were ruined but WD-40 worked. I had to use it on the outside and inside of the pants and scrubbed with an old toothbrush but it was worth it. Thanks for the great advice! I also found white out on my shoes and Goo Gone took that off easily. (04/22/2010)

How do I remove Witeout from black clothing?
By Isbela
Thank you guys! White Out does come out with WD40, just as you said. I'm going to our holiday office party tonight and don't have a big white spot on my black skirt anymore.
I just spilled white-out on my cream colour skirt, like half a bottle and it soaked in instantly. Rinsing it out didn't work and I truly thought it was ruined as it looked like a paint splatter. I then tried stain remover and nothing happened. I was going to toss it into the garbage then decided to try the wd40 because I thought this would make the skirt worse but I was wrong, it worked 100% and it took a few hours and a few attempts with the wd40. I allowed it to sit, then rub it together and re-applied until it completely disappeared . Tossed it into the washer and there is no sign of the white-out or WD 40. Very impressive so thanks for sharing this tip!
How do you remove Wire-Out from black clothes?
Use rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth. It should start to flake off
If the rubbing alcohol doesn't do it, try a bit of WD-40
If the other two solutions don't work. Try to use Pinesol. It works on everything for removing stain.

It is possible to buy Liquid Paper Remover, you should be able to purchase it in any stationery store or office supplies store. I've tried many methods that have been suggested to me but the only thing that worked was the actual Remover solution

Many people recommend trying WD-40. If that doesn't work, take it to a dry cleaner and see what they suggest.
Try rubbing alcohol on a hidden spot first. It will loosen the white out and you can scrape it off
