Why You Shouldn't Throw Away Grey Things That Were White Before: Three Spoons and the Whiteness Will Return

No matter how you look at it, any white item changes its color over time, becoming earthy gray or dirty beige.

Despite the fact that perhaps every second housewife has encountered this problem, not everyone knows the method that will help fix this problem.

What is important is that after this, things do not emit the repulsive smell of “Whiteness” or any other bleach that contains chlorine.

And this is not surprising, because to bleach things you should use nothing other than the familiar hydrogen peroxide.

True, you need another, rather odorous agent – ammonia, but the smell of ammonia disappears fairly quickly.

But let's not beat around the bush, but rather quickly tell you what needs to be done.

Fill a suitable container with 2 liters of lukewarm water and pour in 1 tablespoon of ammonia, 2 tablespoons of peroxide, and after you have mixed everything, add another 3 tablespoons of salt.

Use the resulting solution for a 2-hour soak, then wash the items as usual.
