How do I get my white clothes white again??

bluo its comes in a small blue bottle yes it turns the water blue so dont freak but read the intructions to the tee, it worked for everything but a few bras that stayed greyish everything else was nice and white and you can use it on colored loads as well to help brighten them HTH!!!!

you can also try bicarb soda i think.

yep I would add half a cup of bi-carb to your wash, and halve your regular washing powder - then add half a cup of white vinegar to the final rinse and then dry in the sun

How do you use bleach on clothes Boobaloo? I try the sun which usually works, but I've got a few things that need something a bit sterner.

if you look in the washing detergent aisle at the supermarket, there are bottles of clothing bleach, my fave brand is white king, that stuff works on anything, i use all thier cleaning products. however, even home brand basic bleach does the job. you can either put it through your wash cycle, or soak it in bleach and water. soaking works brilliantly, for some reason, we get a lot of mould here, and bleach gets the mould out of clothes when you soak them, and leaves the clothing really white. if you have mould on coloured clothes, there are some colour-safe bleaches around. just have a look through your cleaning aisle and you'll find some. hth

This is interesting as I read an old wives tale that said wash your whites with an item of clothing that is blue!
