Magic Formula for White Clothes
Ingredients
- taken from Heloise
- 1 gallon HOT water
- 1 cup automatic dishwasher detergent
- 1/4 cup liquid chlorine bleach
Instructions
- Add all ingredients together and mix well.
- This formula is only for white washables made of 100 percent cotton or white
- synthetics, provided they do not specify "no bleach".
- Use a large enamel, plastic, or stainless steel container for this solution. DO
- NOT use an aluminum pot as it will cause the pan to darken and turn black.
- Soak the stained garments approximately 30 minutes. Wash as usual.
- Soak whites made of 100 percent synthetic material, such as nylon, polyester,
- or acrylic, in warm water instead of hot to avoid setting wrinkles. Mix the
- solution as above, but let the water cool to lukewarm before using.
- This formula not only removes stains from baby clothes and T-shirts, but is
- also good to whiten nylon uniforms, etc. You'll be delightfully dazzled at
- how much better they will look.
