What to Do with Really Dirty Clothes from Football Camp

RE: What to Do with Really Dirty Clothes from Football Camp By 77's Mom (3) Profile Contact I lay my son's gear down on the driveway and hose the dirt right off of them. You can actually see rivers of dirt and grime wash down the garment. Then, I soaked the items in soapy water for a bit then laundered as usual. He *sparkled*.

I would scrub it into the stains with an old toothbrush, then soak overnight before washing.

I start the washer with a little hot water and add 4-5 big scoops. Let it dissolve. Switch to cold and add the clothes. Let them soak overnight. Run the cycle in the morning. I then wash them in regular detergent (Tide). This has saved alot of clothes for me.

It worked well.

I also used it for my older son's football clothing. It works much better than bleach as far as i'm concerned and you don't have to worry about it bleaching out parts that shouldn't be bleached.

So she would boil them in boiling water on the stove in her largest pans until they came clean which they always did.
