How to wash kitchen towels in the washing machine

This method is suitable for products of medium degree of contamination or will help to get rid of fresh stains.

What you will need

  • Washing powder or gel.
  • Bleach. It is better not to take chlorine-containing products that can destroy the fibers of the fabric. Give preference to oxygen compositions that effectively cope with stains and are suitable for both white and colored things.

How to do

Load towels into the machine, add powder, bleach and conditioner to the compartment according to the instructions on the package. And then select the appropriate mode. White and light products made of natural fabrics can be washed at a temperature of 90 degrees, colored — at a temperature of 60 degrees, black and dark — at a temperature of 40 degrees. Immediately after washing, take the towels out of the machine and hang them to dry.

Try not to exceed the consumption rates of washing powder and laundry conditioner, which are indicated on the packs. If you overdo it with the funds, they most likely will not be washed to the end and will remain in the fibers of the fabric. As a result, towels will take longer to dry, acquire a stale smell, and you will have to change them more often.

How to wash kitchen towels by boiling

The old and effective way will help to restore the products to their former appearance.

What you will need

Dissolve the funds in water, put towels there, put the pan on the fire and bring to a boil. Colored and dark things can be boiled for 20 minutes, white — for an hour.

After the procedure, carefully remove the towels from the water with forceps so as not to burn yourself. Rinse the products thoroughly in cold water and send them to dry.
