What should I do if white clothes turn yellow?

Many people like white clothes. White clothes are more elegant and look cleaner. However, white clothes have a disadvantage, which is that they will turn yellow after being washed a few times. White clothes are also easier to get dirty. Many people throw away white clothes because they turn yellow after wearing them a few times. Although it feels a pity, there is no other way. The following editor will teach you some methods to solve the problem of yellowing of white clothes.

1. Teach you how to deal with yellowed white clothes!

Rice washing water + orange peel is simple and effective:

Keep the rice washing water or put orange peels in a pot, add water and boil them, then soak the yellowed clothes in it and scrub them to easily restore their whiteness. Not only is it simple, it also does not have side effects on the skin like the fluorescent whitening agents sold on the market and does not damage clothes. It is a good method worth a try.

Yellow stains caused by sweat can be removed with ammonia:

Sweat stains caused by sweating, because sweat contains fat, are easily condensed in fabric fibers, so add about 2 tablespoons of ammonia water when washing, soak for a few minutes, scrub, and then rinse with clean water, and follow the general laundry procedure to remove the yellow sweat stains!

The main reason for the yellowing of white or light-colored clothes is the oil secreted by the human body, especially clothes made of polyester fabrics, which are more prone to yellowing. There are also fat residues left over from washing (most obviously found in flax fibers), which, if not rinsed thoroughly, will cause large areas of clothing to turn yellow. There are ways to get rid of this phenomenon, such as using a large amount of detergent when washing clothes that can be washed in high temperature water. A traditional way is to hang the yellowed clothes in the sun, but before that, apply fresh lemon juice on the yellowed area, add some salt and rub it gently.

NOTE: Use caution and avoid using chlorine bleach. Fabrics such as spandex, silk, and wool will become more yellow when exposed to chlorine bleach.

If white clothes are kept for a long time, they will turn yellow. The main component of yellow stains is protein. Spinach will release soluble protein after being boiled in water.

(1) Buy a bunch of spinach, blanch it in hot water, remove the spinach and leave only the boiling water for later use

(2) Rub the yellow stains in the spinach water and soak for 10 minutes.

(3) After soaking, take out the clothes and wash them using the normal washing process. Done. Clothes are white again!

2. Collection of laundry tips:

1. Wash white clothes and white socks

Stubborn stains on white clothes are difficult to eradicate. At this time, take a lemon slice and boil water, then soak the white clothes in the water and wash them after about 15 minutes.

2. Washing clothes with strange smell

Sometimes clothes will have an unpleasant smell of sweat and acid due to improper drying. Mix white vinegar and water, soak the smelly clothes for about five minutes, and then dry the clothes in a ventilated place!

First, pour alcohol on the scratches made by the fountain pen on the clothes. Each scratch should be evenly covered with alcohol. The alcohol should have a concentration of not less than 75% medical alcohol. Place the clothes with the alcohol poured on it facing up, and try not to let it touch other sides of the clothes, otherwise the color of the pen or ballpoint pen mark may stain other parts of the clothes. Use an ordinary washbasin and prepare half a basin of water. Then pour two full bottle caps of bleach into the clean water. Make sure it is two full bottle caps. Stir it at the same time, and then add a little detergent. You can decide the amount yourself. Then stir it slightly to allow the detergent to fully dissolve in the water. Okay, now soak the clothes completely in water for twenty minutes. When the time comes, wash the clothes and there will be no marks at all!

If white clothes are stained with ballpoint pen scratches, the above method can be used to solve the problem. If there are still traces, you can use toothpaste and soap to gently rub and wash, and then rinse with clean water. Do not soak with boiling water. There is another solution to clothes stained with ballpoint pen marks, which is to use gasoline to stick to the dirty part and wash it, and then wash it with water. This method is also good, you can try it.
