Tips for tide marks on shirt collars

[zzxxee]

My blokes white work shirt collars seem to have yucky tide marks on shirt collars lately.
Hes a very clean guy , does not work in a particularly dirty environment but the shirt collars are a nightmare to keep white. Have tried all kinds of washing detergents any tips guys.

If you want to make whites really white, add some bog standard aspirin to the wash.

Soak overnight in cold detergent before normal white wash in machine. Or use Napisan (?) for soak.

Yep it was always a bar of Fairy soap rubbed across collar and cuffs years ago. But go steady with the nail brush or the cloth will fray before long.
