Boring question - how to make white clothes white again?

Wash them with bleach (works for cotton, not so much for other fibres)

Also makes your washing machine sparkly and non-smelly.

Do I just squirt Domestos in with the powder?

I bleach whites in the bath for a while sometimes before putting them in for a normal wash. That or you could listen to BARRY SCOTTTTT and try the vanish whites that's supposed to work miracles haha.

Sink/bath + bleach (yep, squirt of Domestos fine) + warm water + 10 mins swirls/swishes/checks on colour. Works better if you have a bright room or a window near the sink.

Yep, bleach.

i use it for C's school shirts

I never knew this. Would it get out yellowy sun cream stains? I really should stop buying white summer clothes - they just get ruined.

How much can you put in the washing machine? I usually just do the bath thing for my minging whites

I put a biq squirt of bleach in the washing machine INSTEAD of powder. (About a cap and a half full I guess)

I have the whitest surplice in the choir.

Thanks AC - I shall try that. Do you wash with powder after or anything to remove the smell?

No, by the time it has been properly machine rinsed (and I line dry in the sun if poss) it doesn't smell. And neither will your washing machine. Double bargain!

Don't try this on delicate fabrics like silk.
