Have you noticed your whites turning gray or dull? Have you ever wondered how to bring your clothing to its original bright white color? Try these tips in your home washer:
* Run the wash cycle on your machine using vinegar to break down and soap scum/residue that may be clogging the washer holes
* Don’t overload. Detergent loosens soil from fabrics and the washer needs enough room for agitation so the dirt will wash away, rather than re-depositing in the garments
* Do not use chlorine bleach. Use a hydrogen peroxide-based whitener such as Oxy Clean. Bleach removes color, not stains. A peroxide-based whitener actually removes the stain and revives the white color.
If your white garments have that dull gray look, remember to tell the Attendant when you drop off clothing for wash and fold service.
