if shirts, once collar become yellow, cannot do anything anymore. i love to wear white shirts/tees. i only hand wash them personally. will scold my wife if she wash them. if any stains i use clorox.

so how exactly to prevent it? wash the whites immediately after wearing?

no need immediately. i usually wear them at least twice. for collared shirts, soak with detergent few hours. scrubbing the collar by hand now an then. then if got stains or colorings, soak with clorox. then wash by hand.

It differs from person to person. Our skin is different.

In general, I'd say no need to wash immediately, but must use some prewash product on the collar/cuffs. Personally I've found it hard nowadays to get one at the major supermarkets, seems like not a popular product anymore. So now I use the one from Daiso. It's not a spray but a liquid. So far so good.

according to the label of Vanish, i remember it's only required to soak for 5 minutes, that's what I did

usually I just use room temperature water and it works for me
