How to restore a dull white shirt.
Restoring dull white clothes can be done using several effective methods. Here are some ways you can try:
1. Soaking with bleach solution.
Dissolve bleach that is safe for use on white clothes in cold or warm water according to the instructions on the packaging. Soak dull white clothes in this solution for several hours or overnight. Be sure to read the instructions on the clothing label first to ensure that the bleach can be used on your particular type of fabric.
2. Use alternative bleach.
If you don't want to use chlorine bleach, you can try natural substitutes like white vinegar or baking soda. Soak clothes in a solution of white vinegar or mix baking soda with warm water to make a paste and rub it on dull fabrics before washing them.
3. Whitening detergent.
Use a bleaching detergent specifically designed for whitening fabrics, and follow the directions on the product label carefully.
4. Oxygen bleach.
Oxygen bleach is another gentler alternative to chlorine bleach. Look for an oxygen bleach suitable for white clothes and follow the instructions on the package.
5. Use of hot water.
Washing using hot water can help remove dullness from white clothes. Be sure to check the washing instructions on the clothing label and ensure that your fabric can withstand hot water.
Always remember to test first on a small, inconspicuous area of clothing before applying a thorough bleaching method, especially if you are using stronger ingredients such as chlorine bleach.
