A method tested by more than one generation of housewives.

Just a few decades ago there was not such an abundance of special stain removers.

Even with ingrained stains, the laundresses dealt with them using improvised means.

For example, there was a product that instantly returned greyed-out linen to its original appearance.

Even the maids of today's elite hotels would envy such cleanliness. At the same time, the laundresses did not use soda or vinegar. They had another solution at their disposal that easily bleached the bed linen.

To restore the original appearance of the sheet, duvet cover or pillowcases, you need to use alcohol or turpentine. In addition, you will have to heat the water. The desired effect is achieved only in hot water.

Pour 2 tbsp of any of the products into a basin with linen and water. Soak the bed linen in a solution with alcohol or turpentine for 4 hours. Then rinse it thoroughly and wash it in the machine.
