Soaking Your White Laundry

To get and keep your white laundry the whitest you can, soak the load overnight in the washing machine with your normal detergent and additives. Agitate the load for a few minutes, turn off, and let soak. In the morning you simply have to turn the machine back on to finish the cycle. It really makes a noticeable difference!

Is it safe to soak whites in the laundry for more than two days?

I need help in getting the pink out of a 20x30 nylon flag. The red faded into the white part.What can I use?

Editor's Note: Try all fabric bleach, not chlorine bleach. Check to make sure that nylon is recommended.
