Brilio.net - Towels are one of the most frequently used items in everyday life. However, what happens if the towel that is supposed to provide comfort becomes dirty, oily, and loses its softness?
This condition certainly makes users feel uncomfortable, even disgusting. Not only does it reduce absorbency, dirty towels are also a favorite place for bacteria and fungi to grow.
Dirty and black towels are usually caused by the buildup of soap residue, body oils, or other care products. To overcome this, many people think that bleach is the only solution.
But it turns out, cleaning dirty towels without bleach is not impossible. In fact, you only need simple, easy-to-find kitchen ingredients to do it.
In one of the videos uploaded on YouTube EK TV CHANEL, a trick to clean dirty and oily towels using only two kitchen ingredients is revealed. With simple steps, the end result is very satisfying. The towels are not only clean and bright, but also soft and more durable even though they are used frequently.

One of the main ingredients used in this trick is MSG and detergent. These commonly found kitchen ingredients have amazing abilities in removing stubborn stains and keeping towels soft. The process doesn't even require any bleaching detergent at all.
The video uploader explains that the towel needs to be soaked first to get maximum results. The soaking water is made using a mixture of regular water and hot water in a certain ratio.

"Prepare 1 ladle of plain water, then add half a ladle of hot or boiling water," he explained while showing the initial steps for washing, quoted by brilio.net from YouTube EK TV CHANEL on Monday (28/1).
Before putting in the towel, other ingredients also need to be added. The video uploader suggests adding 2 tablespoons of MSG and detergent to help clean deeper. One capful of liquid detergent is enough to ensure that the dirt is completely removed.

After all the ingredients are mixed, the dirty towel is soaked for 15-20 minutes. This soaking process is very helpful in loosening the dirt that sticks so that it is easier to clean in the next stage. The soaked towel will be easier to brush, even using regular soap.

The brushing process is the next step in cleaning towels. Because they have been soaked, stubborn stains will be easier to remove when brushed. Previously, the uploader used regular soap for this process.
"Then put in the dirty towel. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes," he added.

After the brushing process is complete, the towel needs to be rinsed thoroughly. Clean water is used to ensure that there is no detergent or other residue left on the fabric. Afterwards, the clean towel can be hung out to dry.
