This may seem a bit off topic for the recumbent group but stay with me, it
isn't...
I am a major league sweater and I have found that my tee-shirts acquire a
permanent ammonia odor which I can't seem to wash out. When I launder the
shirts they smell fine but when they get even a little wet the ammonia odor
surfaces.
I have tried the following without good results:
1. Adding Vinegar to my wash.
2. Spraying my shirts with vinegar when I take them off (this has been tried
with and without also adding the vinegar to the wash).
3. Adding baking soda to the wash.
4. Using Fabreeze including the "tough odor" version.
5. A few different brands of detergent although mostly I use Wisk.
Its gotten to the point where my best solution is to not wear my favorite
tee-shirts when I ride. This keeps them smelling ok but then I don't get to
wear them when I ride. I have some great ones that would make E.D.'s head
explode but I want to protect them from odor.
Any suggestions?
