How do I remove deodorant stains from my black sweater?

Question

I have a black, 70% silk, 30% cotton, knit sweater that has accumulated deodorant on the inside underarms. So far I have only tried the dry cleaner, and washing it in cold water on the hand-wash cycle with a "delicates" detergent, and a small amount of liquid fabric softener. Please tell me what is best to try next.

Answer 1

Try using the delicates detergent again, but use an old toothbrush (soft) to gently scrub it.

Answer 2

repeat with delicate detergent. apply directly onto stain and hand rub, hand rinse.

Normally, I would have stated full strength liquid laundry detergent & scrub/brush it prior to wash. But silk may lose some of its color doing that.

Answer 3

A hairdryer on the spot. The heat melts the deoderant away.
