How to whiten clothes and remove old yellow stains

ADVERTISEMENT

White clothes are very elegant, but they have only one flaw: they tend to yellow over time. These annoying stains are mainly caused by our sweat, and as time goes by they become increasingly difficult to remove.

Fortunately, you don’t need to use bleach or other chemicals to remove these types of stains. Below we list some equally effective home tricks against yellow stains on white clothes .

Sodium bicarbonate
Very useful in household cleaning, baking soda has the ability to remove stains without damaging clothing in any way, as is the case with most industrial products.

Apply baking soda directly to the stains to remove them and lighten the garment. Baking soda also works on grease stains.

Vinegar
It is another versatile and useful product in home cleaning. It can also be used to whiten clothes and remove yellow stains.

Fill a bucket with water and add 250 ml of white vinegar. Immerse the white object in the solution and leave it for about an hour.

Once the pre-established time has passed, wash the garment normally: it will be as good as new.
