RE: 'Bluing" Product Used to Make White Fabrics Whiter Post By lindsey (Guest Post) (09/11/2008) i'm not sure if you've already found this, but I just bought a bottle at our local Bartell's drug store. I believe they even have it at most grocery stores. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 'Bluing" Product Used to Make White Fabrics Whiter Post By June (Guest Post) (04/11/2008) I use "bluing" all the time. Mix it with cold water. Fill machine to desired water level. Agaite for a few seconds. Add diluted bluing. Then add clothing and wash as usual. Do not pour it directly on the clothing in the washer. Also just follow the instructions on the container.

Just add a capfull to a glass of water and pour over freshly washed hair, and don't rinse out. It doesn't make your hair blue, it just makes light colored hair look so much brighter and takes away that "yellow" look.

It is also used by farmers or 4H kids who show cows and calves to whiten the hair on the cattle,so perhaps you would want to look in a store that services a rural area. Perhaps the big city stores don't carry this product any more.

There is an interesting garden of crystals you can make with this material. As I remember you take Blueing and pore it over salt on a couple of broket bricks or concrete in a bowl. Then watch the crystals grow. To add to the fun, you put in a couple of drops of food dye. This adds to the different colors of these crystals as they grow. If you could find information about the crystal garden on line, they might be able to tell you where to get the Blueing.

There is a link on their website for stores in MD that carry it: http://www.mrsstewart.com/pages/wheretofind.htm It looks like mostly grocery stores. I would also check independent mom n pop type hardware stores. Otherwise on the web I saw: can buy one bottle: http://www.mclendons.com/item.asp?sku=10554770 comes in order of 2 bottles: http://www.vermontcountrystore.com/ ... &searchid=inceptor&searchid=inceptor 3 dollars for a 16 oz bottle seems too cheap but then I haven't priced it lately.

It was in a small plastic bottle(It wasn't as big as 16 ounces) and was ususlly placed next to the powdered starch in grocery stores. This may be a thing of the past. Report Spam or Abuse
