How to Remove Dingy Whites Stains

White clothes are always brilliant at first, but can dull over time into a dingy white or grey.

Put a stop to that and bring back your divine whites thanks a few tips from Tide on how to say goodbye to dull and dingy whites.

Step 1

Pre-treat

Using a bucket, a sink or a bowl, create a soaking solution by adding 28 grams or 1 ½ tablespoons of Tide Plus Bleach Alternative Liquid per 4 litres of warm water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 5 minutes, weighting the item with a white towel to keep it totally submerged.

Step 2

Dose

You can use the cap to ensure you use the right amount of Tide Plus Bleach Alternative Liquid detergent. Just fill it with the correct dose of detergent, and pour it into the detergent dispenser if you have an HE machine, or directly into the drum before loading the clothes if you have a non-HE machine.

Step 3

Load

Without rinsing off the detergent, place the garment into the washer with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.

Step 5

Unload

When the cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately.

If the stain persists after washing, repeat the previous steps before tossing in the dryer, as drying will set the stain.
