Items made of white material are rightfully considered the most easily soiled, and for this reason they have to be washed somewhat more often. Various contaminants constantly appear on them, and even from regular washing they develop a gray tint. To whiten them, it is not at all necessary to use expensive powders. There are options for using various available means, including aspirin. They cope with this task no worse, and at the same time cost much less. So, how to whiten laundry with aspirin?
Eliminating the gray tint
Aspirin is sold in pharmacies in various forms, but for washing it is recommended to use simple acetylsalicylic acid or a product known as Aspirin S. This option dissolves well in water and is easy to use.
Acetylsalicylic acid will have to be prepared first, because even in boiling water it dissolves slowly. Before using it to wash clothes, it should be ground to a powder in a mortar, coffee grinder or using a knife blade. During grinding, it is recommended to be careful not to inhale the aspirin powder again. Remember that not all fabrics can be bleached, and you should read the labels on every white item.
To eliminate gray shades of laundry, just crush five tablets and mix them with detergent taken for one wash.The mixture is poured into the CMA tray, the unit is programmed to the required mode.
There is an opinion that aspirin damages the washing machine mechanism, and it is best to bleach things by hand. In this case, the procedure follows the following scheme:
- Six tablets are crushed to a powder;
- Warm water in a volume of eight liters is poured into the container;
- add tablets and one third of a glass of washing powder, mix the solution well;
- the item is soaked for ten hours, then washed by hand and rinsed well.
What spots are affected by aspirin?
The medication effectively removes stains from sweat, urine and even blood. To do this, prepare a solution that contains two to three tablets of non-effervescent aspirin and half a glass of water. The components are thoroughly mixed, the solution is poured onto dirty stains on clothing, leaving the item in this condition for several hours. After this, traditional washing is performed.
When the stain is old and deeply ingrained, you should prepare a concentrated mixture. The same amount of medicine is crushed and mixed in one or two spoons of code. The gruel is applied to the stains, left for fifteen to twenty minutes, after which the item is washed.
Blood is removed only with cold aspirin solutions. Hot water will cause the drug to eat into the stains, and washing will never give a positive result.
Washing in SMA
To whiten laundry with aspirin, many people pre-soak the items in a solution of ten tablets diluted in a bucket of water, as is the case with hand washing. After this, the laundry is placed in the drum, and the desired operating mode of the machine is selected.
Many housewives, in order to facilitate the process and whiten things efficiently, buy an improved version of the medicine in the form of effervescent aspirin. All that remains is to put a few tablets on the bottom of the drum, and you can wash it. The product will dissolve perfectly and will not affect the structural structure of the tissue.
How can you whiten things?
Today this medicine is found in several varieties:
· UPSA;
· Cardio;
· acetylsalicylic acid;
· aspirin S.
Each drug basically contains the same ingredient - acetylsalicylic acid. But it is best to use a simple drug, since other medications are enriched with vitamin supplements. Dissolved in water, these additional components can color it in an unexpected shade, thereby ruining your laundry.
Conclusion
It should be noted that these types of washing and bleaching methods receive mostly positive reviews. The option with pre-soaking is most often praised, but a washing machine also gives good results. Today, many women use this unique method of returning white underwear.
