Cleaning Terry Cloth Bar Towels
I work at a small ice cream store in the evenings. We use regular terry cloth bar towels to mop up spills and wipe down counters. I work with all teenagers so asking them to rinse out the towels does not work. I take the towels home every weekend to launder. I first put them through a rinse cycle (warm water) to remove some of the ice cream and anything else on the towels. Next, I refill the washer with HOT water 1 cup of bleach, 1 cap full of Oxyclean and 1 cap full of liquid detergent and then let it soak for at least 12 hours if not more. Then I run it through the pre-wash cycle. I then run the load through a full heavy duty wash with the bleach, Oxyclean, and soap again. I still don't get all the stains out but the towels were starting to look a little better, then I was off for a week and I'm back to square one. The towels look like they've been cleaning the floor with them again. Any suggestions?
