Brilio.net - Have you ever had oil splashed on your clothes while cooking? Or did you accidentally get a pen scribble? These stains sometimes don't just disappear even though the clothes have been washed with detergent. This certainly makes the clothes look dirty, right?
As a solution, most people deliberately soak clothes in detergent solution for hours. The longer the clothes are soaked, the more stubborn stains are likely to fade on their own. Even though it's clean, this method risks making the color of the clothes fade, you know.
To get around this, you can remove stains from clothes in other ways. As done by TikTok user @casandrafashion_. In his video upload, this netizen showed the appearance of his clothes covered in marker marks. Because the basic color of the clothes is white, the marker stains appear even more clearly.

How to clean stains on white clothes.
Instead of soaking his clothes in a detergent solution, this netizen actually made a special cleaning fluid. First, he put a capful of bleach into the glass. For maximum cleanliness, he also added 1 capful of dishwashing soap as a cleaning mixture. So the dosage for bleach and dishwashing soap is 1:1, OK?

Without needing to add water, just stir the cleaning liquid mixture until it is completely mixed. Once done, dip an old toothbrush in it and rub it on the stained clothes.
"Brush on faded stains while the clothes are dry," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @casandrafashion_ on Saturday (2/3).

After rubbing for a while, stubborn stains on clothes appear to fade by themselves. Do this process until all the stains on the clothes are gone. If so, then wash the clothes as usual. After that, rinse with clean water then hang the clothes in the sun until dry. In this way, clothes that were originally dirty look clean again.

Factors that cause clothes to stain.
There are several factors that can cause clothes to get stains that are difficult to remove. Here are some of the causal factors:
1. Type of stain.
Different types of stains have different properties. Stains such as oil, ink, blood, or certain food spills can be more difficult to remove than other stains.
2. Time.
The longer a stain is left on the fabric, the more difficult it is to remove. Stains that are treated immediately are usually easier to clean.
3. Fabric type.
The nature of the fabric also affects how easily stains can be removed. For example, more delicate and sensitive fabrics such as silk or satin may be more susceptible to stains than cotton or linen fabrics.
4. Water temperature.
Some stains may require a certain water temperature to be removed. For example, oil stains may be easier to remove with hot water, whereas blood stains are usually better treated with cold water.
5. Environmental conditions.
Factors such as humidity, sun exposure, or air pollution can also affect how difficult it is to remove stains from clothing.
When dealing with stubborn stains, it is important to pay attention to the type of stain, type of fabric, and the right cleaning method so that the stain can be removed without damaging the fabric.
