What to do if white clothes turn yellow after being stored for a long time

In the normal people's minds, white clothes are generally purer and cleaner. Even if there is a little stain, they will not be worn out. Generally, when white clothes are out of season and kept in the closet for a long time, they will turn yellow. They do not look like beautiful clothes when worn, let alone others wearing them to go out to play or go shopping. So how can we make white clothes turn yellow? Can this be solved?

1. Rice washing water + orange peel is simple and effective

Keep the rice washing water or put orange peels in a pot, add water and boil them, then soak the yellowed clothes in it and scrub them to easily restore their whiteness. Not only is it simple, it also does not have side effects on the skin like the fluorescent whitening agents sold on the market and does not damage clothes. It is a good method worth a try.

,2. Use 84 disinfectant or bleach to bleach

For pure white clothes, you can use 84 disinfectant or bleach to bleach them. Soak the clothes directly in 84 disinfectant diluted with water for a while, and then rinse them clean; mix bleach with water according to the amount specified in the product instructions, then soak the clothes, and wash them several times during rinsing to reduce residue. This method only applies to all-white clothes and is not suitable for other colored clothes. In addition, because bleach can damage clothes and skin, it is recommended not to use it frequently.

3. Drying method

A traditional way is to hang the yellowed clothes in the sun, but before that, apply fresh lemon juice on the yellowed area, add some salt and rub it gently.

4. Blue ink rinsing method

Add a few drops of blue ink (not too much) into clean water, then stir well. Then put the washed white clothes into the water, pull them up a few times, and then hang them in the sun.

Solving the problem of yellowing clothes is not a difficult thing. If we want to keep white clothes bright, we need to pay more attention during daily washing. When the sun is hot, especially in summer, it is best not to expose white clothes to the sun, as this will easily cause them to turn yellow.
