Nike DriFit

How long did you have it for before it began?

Do you use chlorine free detergent?

I have 9-10 Nike Dri Fit shirts and have zero problems like you. Sounds like you poured your detergent directly onto the shirt which is a no-no.

Hm. I dont have any shirts (all my shirts are adidas), but I have nike pro combat compression shorts and leggings and havent had a problem with those. And I use the same washing method.

I am debating writing a letter to Nike. I am not big on that sort of thing, but I am somewhat pissed that I took care to wash the damn thing and the result wasn't simply a clean shirt.

sounds like you got paint on it, bro

not the case though, trust me.

Never pour detergent directly onto clothes. It can leave those spots if the water hits it right. My wife ruined several of my shirts before I taught her that little tidbit.

As in...you let it fill with water before adding, or you toss the detergent on the sides?

i never paint in my good clothes like that. Always an old tshirt or something similar

Start washer, pour detergent in washer, let a few inches of water into washer, add clothes.

nice

Weird. Never had an issue before. Guess Ill just consider myself lucky and start doin that.

First the problem:

Agitate

There is an important step many people miss out when doing the laundry. They carelessly fill the washer with water, add the clothes, shake some detergent over it, then leave the clothes to spin. When they come back, they notice white stains all over their clothes, caused by white detergent clumps that formed. What they don't know is that this can be resolved by a very simple tactic: agitating the water and detergent, before adding the clothes. Agitating means stirring up the water, in order for the detergent mixed in it to dissolve. If the detergent is properly dissolved, no white clumps are present, meaning there will be less white stains on the fabrics when you put them in. To agitate, add the detergent while the machine is filling. You can also use your hand to help mix up detergent and water. When you see that the detergent has properly dissolve, you can add the clothes. Another tip: Make sure you're using enough or more than enough water. If the amount of water is not enough for the detergent to dissolve in, the chances of clumps building up become higher. Adding plenty of water helps you avoid this



Second the fix:

Materials:

water
old rug
dish cloth or muslin cloth
clean cloth
Procedure:

Instead of damping it, sprinkle water all over the stain.
Using the old rug, rub the detergent mark vigorously, until all the soapy substance froths out.
Press hard on the area with a dish cloth or a clean muslin, allowing the dampness to be absorbed. Repeat this process, if needed.
Wipe the area using a clean cloth, but don't froth the area.


Never tried it. Got this from Google. Hope it works for you.
