Kohler vs. Mirabelle White
Comments (3)I ended up using Mirabelle, Toto, and an Ikea Sink Top all in a small bathroom....worried and researched the whites and now that it's all in, all the whites are truly all fine together...can't tell one from the other. In other words, seems like once they are in and they have the same lighting washing over them, it all blends....See MoreDingy white towels
Comments (17)I use Washing Soda (borax)...adding when I start filling washer before putting whites in (about 1/2 cup to each load.) This works for me & my white towels are about 8 yrs old, and still look new. White towels are never washed with anything else...even colored ones, which are also washed alone. I let washer to fill 'n start, then open lid so load soaks for awhile, turn back to agitate again & finish the cycle. Washing soda takes out stains (tomato based sauces, blood, etc.)that previously required peroxide/stain removers, etc., and I use it with all laundry. Also leaves everything much softer. Detergent manufacturers say their product should be added as washer fills, but nearly everyone makes the mistake of adding it after. Suzi...See Moredingy white shirt
Comments (4)I am so pleased! The Oxyclean worked. Three scoops in a sink of warm water for about an hour and my shirt looks like new again. That is some good stuff! Graywings, thank you :) Lindac thanks also for your suggestion. I knew not to use bleach, but didn't think about the Detergent w/whiteners. Anyway...problem solved and I'm so pleased...just Love that white shirt!...See MoreDingy Whites--High Iron & Hard Water
Comments (7)sahcghcph I found that Nature Bright by Shaklee works wonders! I am new to the Shaklee line, and still experimenting with their products, but I was really happy with the results. It's all natural, won't harm children or the earth.. (I learned about their product on here)It's a great whitener and stain remover..you can also do a soak in your sink for deep stains, so it probably will take the dingy look out of your whites also..then put it through a wash cycle with a scoop and you should be pretty white again.. I use Charlies Soap with nature bright and everything is clean and white. heres the two web sites www.charliesoap.com and www.shaklee.com... take a peek, using natural will be so much better for the wells also..I know both of these company's will give you a full refund if you are not happy with their products..so it's no risk, and if it doesn't work for you, you get your money back..hope this was helpful...
