Every kitchen has towels. They have to be washed quite often because towels are used every day for their intended purpose.

They leave stains that are very difficult to remove. The color of the towel may also change. In such situations, simple washing, stain removers and boiling may not always help.

Therefore, kitchen towels do not last long and are simply replaced with new ones. However, you can wash them 100% completely easily and simply.

To ensure that kitchen towels are washed well, you need to add vegetable oil during washing. It may seem like some kind of nonsense, but it is a very effective method.

What needs to be done

You need to prepare everything you need for washing. You will need a 10-liter saucepan, dry bleach, washing powder, and vegetable oil. Pour water into the saucepan. You will need about 6-7 liters.

Wait until the water boils and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Also add a couple of spoons of washing powder and bleach. Mix everything.

The saucepan should be large, as there will be a lot of foaming. Dirty towels are placed there, everything is covered with a lid and left in this state.

After 1.5 hours, check the pan, stir the contents and turn off the heat. All that's left is to wait for everything to cool down. After a few hours, rinse the towels thoroughly. This can be done by hand or in a washing machine.

After such washing, the towels will be perfectly clean, and the pattern will look much brighter.
