Washing New Red or Black Clothing

RE: Washing New Red or Black Clothing Post By Christine (Guest Post) (04/17/2008) All of my black t-shirts are fading unevenly, sort of white splotchy looking? Does anyone know what that is from? Would vinegar help with that? Also, white lint like stuff is stuck on all of my black clothing. I have tried just running the washing machine with only water and no soap. No luck.

If i decide to lock their colors using vinegar, should i do them separately or its fine even if i treat then with vinegar together in washer.

For a small load with 1 or 2 pieces, I set the water level to small load, tempreture to cold, and add 1/4 cup of vinegar. (No laundry detergent) Then just run through regular wash cycle (No soaking or rubbing required). Afterwards, I wash a second time with laundry detergent to get rid of the vinegar smell before drying.

Do you just wash the clothes in a bucket with a vinegar-water mix, or put vinegar in the washing machine, or..? Also, how much vinegar do you use? Report Spam or Abuse
