I’m a cleaning pro – the $5 product I use to make shirts white when they’re yellowing, no one’s ever heard of it
IF you want your whites to glisten and gleam, it will only take one key product.
A cleaning expert has revealed the best way to keep your whites in top condition.
In a video shared with her 3.7 million TikTok followers, a woman who goes by @nottheworstcleaner on social media revealed her process for making a yellowing shirt become white again.
“If you have white shirts that seem a little gray or were previously bleached, and now yellow, you need to try Liquid Bluing,” she said.
“All you need to do is dilute a few drops in some cold water and add it to your washer’s final rinse cycle if it’s a larger load.”
The cleaning expert mentioned that if you’re working on a smaller load, you can use a bucket.
“You can just do it in a bucket for about 10 minutes, soak it, and then rinse,” she explained.
Liquid Bluing can be purchased for just $4.95 at Ace Hardware.
According to the cleaning whizz, Liquid Bluing is non-toxic, and not a harsh chemical like bleach, so it won’t deteriorate fabrics or cause any yellowing.
Showing the process on a white T-Shirt, the woman was left with a sparkling white garment.
