White towels look the most aesthetically pleasing, for this reason they can often be found as an accessory in good hotels and expensive hotels.

Many housewives also have beautiful white textiles in their homes.

However, there is a big downside to this: towels quickly get dirty and acquire other shades of color. Therefore, you need to know about a special washing method.

If you want the textiles to be washed and become snow-white again, then the classic washing method will not work for us.

How to properly work with white towels

First, take each towel, wet it and rub it thoroughly with laundry soap. Transfer them to a basin and pour in warm water. You don't need a lot of liquid - just enough to cover the textile.

We wait from 1 to 3 hours.

Next, wash the towels. You can choose any method. This will be enough to get rid of any stains. Next, you need to dilute one measuring spoon of potassium permanganate in a small amount of water. Then mix the concentrate with nine liters of water.

As a result, we should get a liquid of a pink hue.

We send the towels for another 15 minutes. If the textile has completely lost its color, turning gray or yellow, then we increase the time to 30 minutes.

Then drain the water. Add liquid to the basin again and add a spoonful of citric acid. Use the mixture for rinsing.

After this wash, the towels will be simply snow-white.
