Grey white towels?<\/p>\n
If you have white towels, you may notice that they are not as white as they used to be.\u00a0 Wouldn\u2019t you love to have towels or sheets as white as in a hotel.\u00a0 In order to get your towels back to smelling fresh and sparkling white, try the following solutions \u2013<\/p>\n
\u2022 Always wash whites separately and make sure to pre-treat stains as soon as possible, before any heat gets applied by the tumble dryer, sun or by ironing<\/p>\n
\u2022 Use a commercial pre-treat or make a sudsy mixture of an enzyme cleaner and water. Apply, rub and let it sit for a few hours.\u00a0Be careful with bleach as it can destroy the fabric.<\/em><\/p>\n \u2022 Put hydrogen peroxide in the bleach dispenser, soap in the soap dispenser and \u00bd cup white vinegar in the softener dispenser. Commercial softener reduces the absorbency of your towels and chlorine bleach, if used incorrectly, may damage the fibre.<\/em><\/p>\n \u2022 Rinse very well. Add an extra rinse cycle if necessary.<\/p>\n \u2022 The old fashioned Reckitts Blue are still working wonders!<\/p>\n If you have discovered better solutions, please share them . . . Colored towels can be lovely, but white towels are more versatile.\u00a0 White cotton terry towels are a classic choice and they can be bleached, which is key.<\/p>\n More tips … During the week:<\/p>\n Hang wet towels to dry right away.\u00a0 Hang properly, which means in as thin a layer as possible.\u00a0 No bunching!\u00a0 The towels need to dry quickly so mildew and mold don\u2019t have the opportunity to form.<\/p>\n Wash towels at least weekly<\/p>\n Any longer between washings and trouble is more likely to arise.\u00a0 Hang towels to dry, and then place towels in hamper.\u00a0 Don\u2019t leave piles of wet towels around waiting for laundry day.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t use fabric softener or\u00a0dryer sheets.<\/strong><\/p>\n This may seem counter intuitive, but fabric softeners work by depositing a thin layer of wax on the fibers, and this decreases the absorbency of the towels. A little bit of vinegar acts as softener.<\/p>\n Remove wet items from the washing machine promptly.<\/strong><\/p>\n Don\u2019t give mildew an opportunity to set in.<\/p>\n Dry the towels.<\/strong><\/p>\n Dry on high in the dryer, hang on a clothesline, or try a combination to save energy.\u00a0 The dryer kills more germs than the actual wash cycle. For pure freshness, hang towels outside to dry in the sunshine.\u00a0 The sun\u2019s rays sanitize the towels, making this a healthy choice as well.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t like the crispness of line-dried towels, try a clothesline-dryer combination.<\/p>\n Fold neatly until ready to use.<\/strong><\/p>\n Shield your clean towels\u00a0from dust by storing them in a cabinet or linen cupboard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Grey white towels?
