Keeping your white clothes always white can be a challenge. However, using the right techniques and products and help you maintain their bright shine. You can ensure that your white garments stay crisp and clean wash after wash. Let’s explore some easy techniques for washing your white clothes. 

Sort your whites

Before washing the clothes, always separate your whites from coloured clothes. This step is necessary to prevent colour transfer. Furthermore, sorting whites by fabric type can also help you with the washing process. 

Stains

To remove stubborn stains effectively, apply a pre-treatment solution or a mixture of water and detergent directly to the stained areas and gently rub the fabric. Then allow it to sit for a few minutes before washing to achieve the best results.

Right detergent

Don’t just buy any random detergent you find while shopping in the supermarkets. Choose a high-quality laundry detergent especially formulated for whites. Products that contain bleach or brightening agents are the best ones for white clothes. 

Hot water

Hot water helps dissolve detergent more effectively and can remove dirt and stains more thoroughly from white fabrics. All clothes come with care labels on them. Read those labels and follow the mentioned steps and precautions to be taken while washing them. 

Dry properly

After washing, remove your white clothes from the washing machine and transfer them to the dryer or drying rack. If using a dryer, select the appropriate heat setting to prevent shrinkage and damage to the fabric. For best results, hang white clothes in direct sunlight to air dry, as sunlight has natural bleaching properties that can help maintain their brightness.
