Treat first, then wash hot
Many healthcare employers ask staff to wash uniforms at 60°C. Do the cold rinse and pre-treatment first, then the hot wash, so the heat doesn't set the stain.
- 1Rinse protein stains coldRinse blood and body fluids under cold running water from the back. Never hot.
- 2Spray and wait 1–3 minutesSpray the matching bottle until the stain is wet through. Don't let it dry.
- 3Wash as your policy saysWash at the temperature your employer's uniform policy and the care label require. Air-dry and check before tumble drying.
What Luniva isn't for
A stain remover doesn't replace your employer's infection-control rules: follow them for anything contaminated. Luniva's sprays also aren't made for pen ink, a common mark on scrubs pockets.
Top tips
- Keep a spare set of scrubs so stained ones can be treated properly, not rushed.
- Wash uniforms on their own, not with your everyday clothes.
- Navy and coloured scrubs: wash inside out to keep the colour.
