Surely each of us at least once found ourselves in a situation when, along with snow-white clothes, a bright red sock ended up in the washing machine.

The unpleasant discovery was only made when it was time to remove the laundry from the drum.

Instead of a pile of snow-white things, pink (blue, yellow, green – choose the desired option) colored T-shirts and shirts appeared.

Fortunately, we learned about a simple method that will help “revive” damaged laundry.

To do this, you will need to throw the clothes back into the washing machine and add half a measuring spoon of vinegar and the same amount of baking soda.

Turn on the device, select the hot water mode and, after waiting until the solution is thoroughly mixed, press pause.

The items should sit in the washing machine for a while to absorb the homemade bleach.

After that, you can wash them using your usual detergent - powder or gel. As a rule, the result is visible after the first use, but there are cases when the procedure should be repeated.
