How to Whiten White Clothes and Remove Old Yellow Stains (Page 2 ) | March 16, 2025

How to Use:

Mix 1 tablespoon of dish soap, 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide, and 2 tablespoons of baking soda to create a paste.
Apply the paste directly to the yellow stains and gently scrub with a brush. Let it sit for 30 minutes to an hour before washing.
7. Borax
Borax is a natural mineral that helps with cleaning, whitening, and deodorizing. It can help to break down stains and restore the brightness of white clothes.

How to Use:

For Whitening: Add 1/2 cup of borax to your laundry load along with your detergent.
For Stain Removal: Dissolve borax in hot water (about 1/2 cup per gallon of water) and soak your clothes for a few hours before washing.
8. Sunlight
Sunlight acts as a natural bleach and can be used to brighten and whiten white clothes.

How to Use:

After washing your clothes, hang them outside in direct sunlight. The UV rays from the sun will naturally help to whiten the clothes and may assist in removing yellow stains. Be cautious with delicate fabrics, as prolonged exposure to sunlight may weaken them.
9. Chlorine Bleach (for Tough Stains)
Chlorine bleach is a strong whitening agent but should be used sparingly, as it can weaken fabrics over time and may cause damage if not used correctly.

How to Use:

For Whitening: Dilute chlorine bleach with water according to the manufacturer’s instructions and add it to your washing machine. Only use chlorine bleach on pure cotton and sturdy fabrics.
For Stain Removal: If you’re tackling yellow stains on a particularly tough fabric, you can apply a diluted bleach solution directly to the stain. Let it sit for a few minutes before washing.
10. Enzyme-Based Stain Remover
Enzyme-based stain removers break down organic stains, such as sweat, food, or body oils, which contribute to yellowing.
