Can't get stains out of jacket

Hey I have washed my newest jacket an oakley tactic in blue and it always seem like the wash doesn't really give it that sparkle I was looking to get after washing it! The stains under the cuffs are still there. I have a dot from something and it won't come out either even though I washed it the day the spot got there. Used tech wash but does anybody know anything with a more powerful cleaner that won't hurt my nice weatherproof clothing?


Thanks

idk, but one guy said that he put lemon juice (directly from the lemon, not bottled) on the stain, and let it in the sun for a while, then wash it and the stains were gone. as said, idk if this works, but he said it did

put some soap on the spots and just let it sit for a long ass time and then wash the jacket again

ive got an oakley evo in ozone that was pretty dirty. I used spray n' wash then washed it in the machine, and ended up doing it again to get the "desired sparkle". it worked for mine, maybe try that? good luck dude.

DO NOT PUT SOAP ON YOUR JACKET

it ruins the waterproof. Thats why they make tech wash and re-proofer.

Hit the spots with a brush and tech wash.

Honestly I wouldn't worry about it, your outerwear is gonna get dirty as fuck no matter what. You'll clean it and it'll probably be just as dirty within a week...
