Tips to Pre-Treat Your White Laundry
White is a hard color to keep clean, especially if you have children! The best way to keep your whites in tip top shape is to care for them correctly. If your favorite white shirt gets hit with marinara sauce or your morning coffee, immediately pre-treat the stains with Clorox 2® Stain Remover and Color Booster Liquid Laundry Detergent!
Here are a few tips to follow to keep your favorite white clothes, bright and clean!
- Treat stain as soon as possible! If home, take the article of clothing off immediately and treat it with a small amount of Clorox 2® Stain Remover and Color Booster. The sooner you treat the stain, the more likely you are to get rid of it. Be sure to keep a Clorox Bleach Pen with you when you leave the house so you can pretreat stains on the go!
- When blotting out large stains, use a white wash cloth or dish towel to prevent color transfer. Be sure to blot from the edge of the stain to keep it from spreading further.
- Apply a small amount of Clorox 2® to the stain and rub it in gently. Wait about 3-5 minutes, then quickly wash the article of clothing as directed on the care label, in the warmest water recommended. You can use your favorite detergent if you wish, just add a bit of Clorox 2® to the wash to be sure that stain gets removed.
- Never put a stained article of clothing in the dryer! That will just bake the stain right in. If you wash your article of clothing and the stain is not completely gone, pre-treat it and wash it again immediately. Be sure the stain is completely removed before placing the item in the dryer!
- Wash your white or mostly white clothes with Clorox Smart Seek™ Bleach
