Questions

Dried Clothes SmellThis sounds a little weird, but every time I do my laundry, afterwards they end up smelling bad. The weird part is that I know what I smell like after I've been sweating. When I take them out of the washer, they seem to smell clean and fine. It's when I take them out of the dryer that I notice the smell.

Reusing the Suds in the WasherBesides vinegar and fabric softener what else can I use to reduce suds in the washing machine?

Clean Clothes Smell Bad When WetMy clothes seem to smell okay when they are washed. The problem I run into is that when I start to sweat or my clothes get wet by rain or moisture from any sort, they stink. The smell is an awful sour smell. I tried borax and vinegar and new detergents. I even cleaned my washer as instructed.

Remedy for Dingy Coloured TowelsHow to do I get the greyness out of my coloured towels. I have soaked them I bleach and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can use?

Removing Diesel Fuel Odor from ClothesI tried the 2 liter coke and baking soda twice. I let sit for 20 hrs. Then I washed the clothes in hot water and All detergent. I did this twice and still have the smell. I'm not sure what to do now.

Cleaning a Silk and Polyester DressI have a dress that is 65% silk and 35% polyester with no washing instructions. How do I care for this dress, dry clean, machine wash, or? I do have a front load washing machine and dryer or should I use those dry cleaning bag that go in the dryer?
