slough stained yellow breast feathers

I use Whink rust and stain remover. I get it at Ace Hardware. It comes in a brown plastic bottle. Probably about 6 oz. Use it on a cottonball or squirt it right on the feathers when washing. The rust or water stain will disappear. Good luck!

 

Here's what to look for:



Make sure to wear gloves and don't let it sit on non-white feathers very long.

Good for all white feathers that have rust stains.

Use it sparingly, it's essentially hydrocloric acid.
