Скачать или смотреть Do NOT use chlorine bleach when doing laundry!

This is a dry cleaners explanation of chlorine bleach vs. oxygen bleach. Long story short, you should never use chlorine bleach in the laundry room unless it’s a last ditch effort!

In this demo I stained two green cotton swatches with mustard stains and then treated one with chlorine bleach and the second with oxygen bleach; I believe the results speak for themselves.

Chlorine bleach is AMAZING at removing color, but it does not know how to differentiate between ‘good’ color and ‘bad’. Whereas oxygen bleach only targets the color of stains. That’s because while both reactions use oxidation, oxygen bleaches use a much much milder form.

To use powdered oxygen bleaches, like @OxiClean, fill a bucket with hot water, add some powder, and let it soak overnight, then wash. Oxygen bleaches require high water temperatures and lots of time to work.

Don’t want to do all that? Spray 3% hydrogen peroxide on your stain and let it air dry and check the results the next morning. This is less efficient but much easier and less time consuming.

Happy cleaning!!! 😊
