The Secret to Getting WHITE CLOTHES WHITER (Easy Stain Removal)!!

[@wyominghome4857]

Part of the problem with dingy clothes is the new washing machines. They really don't get clothes very clean. UPDATE 7/18/22: But let me add one thing more. Consumer Reports just recommended Persil liquid detergent as the best on the market for getting clothes white. I live in an area where the water is super hard with minerals. So much so that my whites were all looking yellow and feeling stiff. I tried Persil and it really seems to work. My white clothes looked super white after one wash. I don't know what's in it, but Persil does seem to deal with hard water yellowing. One of the few times in my life when a product claim actually proved to be true.Thought I'd pass that along.

[@mapssweetblk5769]

My washing machine is 13 years old and im dreading the day i have to replace it. Everyone i know who's bought a new one i the past 5 years are complaining about how bad they are. Especially the front loader

[@jilllovesbeegees70]

A repairman told us years ago.. hang on to this washer, its a work horse .. i rarely repair these (kenmore) 27 years old. Never had it repaired.

[@wyominghome4857]

My mom used to swear by everything with Sears’ Kenmore brand on it. The brand meant excellence. Same with Craftsman tools that were sold by Sears. Then the MBAs took over Sears, had everything made in China, and ran the store chain into the ground. Some smart person should find a machine like yours, take it apart to see how it’s built, and start making them again.

[@emilyvanhaausen3728]

So true, I've taken clothes fresh out of the washer/dryer and then rinsed/squeezed them in my sink with hot water and seen all the gross brown water that comes out.

[@wandaarnt234]

Yes the new machines are poor....I love the old wringer washers

[@TheeRoyalVirgo]

I recently switched to using the Tide with bleach powder detergent in my whites, and have been very satisfied with the results. It really gets and keeps my whites white without needing to add any extras.

[@mercedesbenzs600bash]

All white fabric has a blue tint making them look white. To keep it, I use Mrs. Stewarts liquid bluing in my rinse. Careful, though you must dilute it. Works perfect and my whites are never dingy.

I will definitely try this. I usually throw out my white shirts due to sweat stains. Hope I can save some money, and some shirts, by doing this. Thank you

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

Let us know how it goes! Soaking can make a huge difference.

[@Denise-xv4tm]

Kimily, If you have a front loader or even the top loader and your machine has a sanitize cycle, use the sanitary cycle with oxyclean or white revive oxyclean. Those yellow sweat stains will come out everytime. The water must be hot. I have the LG front loaders and they automatically set the water temp according to the cycle. I hope this helps you. 😊

[@lindapelle8738]

Do have to use hot water on even delicate whites? To get them white again, my whites tend to yellow all over, I don’t use hot scared of shrinkage.

[@robinluich6626]

Ammonia soak then rewash in your regular detergent.

[@Birdsong-Annalee]

Make a paste of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. Push onto stain with your fingers or a brush. Let sit. When dry, brush off excess then wash. Should take out sweat stains.

No matter what products you use, i believe it helps to start with truly hot water to properly launder white clothing. I'm just old fashioned that way. Unfortunately, I live in a senior apartment building where our hot water heaters are set (for our safety i've been told) to limit the water temperature. So, what we have is extra warm water. It's very frustrating. Ha! Thanks for your tips however. I'll have to give them a try as soon as i find a way to access hot water.

[@AA-zq1sx]

Don't you have access to a stove? Boil the water.

[@kamiw5864]

Hot water actually sets in almost any stain. It’s a very common misconception to use hot water with bleach to whiten clothing, you have to use cold water. Try it and see what happens, you’ll be surprised. The exception is any oil based stain, use warm water to scrub off excess, soak in lukewarm water and very light bleach then wash in cool water with low or bleach free stain remover. Again, try it and see.

[@cherylsxavier2975]

Instead of using the oxy clean use 6 or 8 aspirin. The oxy clean and bleach eat the fiber of the material and they wear out faster. I use a 5 gallon bucket and let everything soak overnight with 6 aspirin. It works great!🙂

[@sherleyrodriguez7865]

Hello regular aspirin or baby aspirin

[@nadriguez]

Do you use hot or warm water?

[@razorrich]

Aspirin to whiten clothes doesn’t appear true. There’s an article called ‘Laundry Hacks That Don’t Work’ published in The Spruce on Aug. 2022 disproves this myth and offers a valid explanation. Here’s an excerpt from the article. ‘There is no sound science to this rumored hack. Perhaps it got its start on the internet because aspirin was patented by Bayer-a German textile dye company-in 1899. The chemical compound of aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid which will break down when exposed to moisture to become salicylic acid. Salicylic acid has no bleaching effect on fabrics.’ ‘Pre-soaking clothes in hot water is actually what may make them appear whiter. The hot water helps to lift embedded grime and body soil from the fibers that makes whites appear dingy. Once they are loosened, they are much easier to wash away in a normal laundry cycle.’ Furthermore, OxiClean and Bleach used properly, doesn’t cause wear on approved fabrics.

[@frances1503]

My great aunt ×3 told me about the aspirin many years ago and it works and much cheaper then that other crap.

[@connieschneider7392]

I’ll try it. Thank you.

[@ablckdiamd1]

I used Oxy clean, Clorox( depending on the stains bc using too much Clorox a week will eat up the material especially socks 🤦🏾‍♀️) ,and Baking soda and soak in hot water for me ..an hr. Again it depends on how bad the stains are.

I also use blueing. After rinsing and adding vinegar, letting close soak, agitate (I found a new washer that agitated, adds as much water as I want and let's me soak for as long as I choose.) I do a last rise and depending on the size of the load add a table spoon up to 1/4 cup blueing. I keep an old milk jug to dilute the blueing because it is a dye. Whites are so white they are unbelievable.

I've recently discovered a new solution that works great to remove underarm stains and collar dirt - Spray n Wash stick. I know this is a product that has been around for a while but I've never had the thought to use it. This works miracles. My new white jerseys stay white with NO smell under the arms. How I use it - well, as the product says, apply (I apply to the dry clothing) up today 2 days before you wash. I apply liberally on all stains, dirt marks and put my clothing to soak. When I go to wash my clothes, the areas that had the Spray n Wash applied wash SO easily and leave no smell. It's fantastic. Saves time having to wash and wash. Mind you, I have only used it so far for handwashing my whites, but I would think it also works well in the machine.

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

I may just try this because I’ve been working on a video seeing what can get off underarm stains. So far nothing. I used regular Spray and Wash and no difference so I’ll give this a try. Thank you for your comment!

I have 3 boys, and they all played football. I would cringe every time I would see their pants for football was white. I would work on their pants for hours. Till another mother told me to get Cascade powder dish washing soap, and soak my whites in hot water. I didn't have to scrub the dirt, and grass stains out of football uniforms ever again. It also work on stained colored clothes with out bleaching them.

how much do you put into a load? I have foster kids that play baseball.

[@lorimaunu8822]

@@qq1651 I put about a cup in the machine with water, then put the clothes in.

Spray & Wash works too…..better than a six hour soak 😳

HELP! I went to brunch last week and did not realize the booth I sat in had JELLY on it. I had a brand new pair of ivory colored Hugo Boss linen/denim jeans on. I pre washed with Oxiclean and it bleached the spot white! How can I even out the fabric without ruining them?😭 it’s painful to ruin something so expensive!

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

Oh no! The only thing I could think of trying is a denim colored clothing dye, depending on how large the stain is. Good luck!

[@judywood4530]

@@CleanFreakGermaphobe If you are going to re-dye the pants, it might be more successful to completely remove the original color first. Then you could dye with any color, including an ivory color. These products are available at Joann Fabrics and Crafts.

Rit dye has a color/ tint remover do them over💖 So sorry about that experience. I would do ivory again, they sound lovely

All you had to do was fill the washer to however size you wanted to soakwhites anyways fill the washer like I stated and just power of the washer and your clothes will be soaking until you decide you ready to wash and rinse.

[@MsRaye-23]

6 hours? Lol! hot water, White Brite along with your detergents removes any yellowing and stains. For a less toxic option Peroxide and your detergents. Right in the wash no soaking required for either.

[@patmolnar8810]

Why can't you just put the oxiclean in the washer when you wash

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

You can but my washing machine won't soak for longer than about an hour and a half.. Then it will drain out. And so I used my sink.

[@junpam3300]

Unplug your machine when u are already soaking the clothes. It will not drain if its unplug.

[@voiceofclarity5585]

Adding OxiClean into a normal wash load will help. However, the soaking action helps more.

To clean a satin doll bridal gown I soaked it in a sm tub; warm water w/oxy powder from Dollar Tree. There were mystery stains orange in color across the back. After 2 changes water and oxy and 7 days soaking, rinse, squeeze and dry on a towel. Looks like new.

[@vaderladyl]

Those orange stains are a type of mildew and it washes off nicely with Oxy, vinegar or baking soda and lemon too.
