The Miracle Trick To Detach White Laundry.

And There you go ! Thanks to sodium percabonate, you have detached your white laundry naturally and effortlessly :-)

Easy, fast and efficient, right?

Be aware that this trick not only works on white cotton laundry, but also on light colored laundry.

On the other hand, sodium percarbonate is not suitable for fragile fabrics, such as silk or cashmere.

Why does it work?

Present in many detergents, sodium percarbonate has powerful disinfectant and antibacterial properties.

Sold as a crystallized white powder, it is also a very good bleaching agent.

In contact with water, sodium percarbonate breaks down into its two main constituents:

- soda crystals (also called soda ash) are known to naturally remove blood, tea, coffee, chocolate, red wine, fruit, grease, perspiration, carrot, tomato, lipstick, grass, soot and other organic stains.

- active oxygen (also called hydrogen peroxide) has powerful whitening properties.

Additional advice

- For blood stains: wet the area with cold water rather than hot water.

- To revive the white: add 1 to 2 tablespoons of percarbonate of soda to the powder compartment of the washing machine.

- To sanitize and detach heavily soiled textiles (dishtowels, garden clothes, etc.): before washing, soak the textiles in hot water with 1 to 2 tablespoons of percarbonate of soda per litre. Scrub stains, soak for 30 minutes and machine wash.

- To detach and purify washable diapers or washable menstrual protection: before washing, soak the textiles in a bucket of hot water mixed with 2 to 4 tablespoons of percarbonate of soda. Leave for a few hours and machine wash.

Where to buy sodium percarbonate?

You can easily find sodium percarbonate in supermarkets, in the household department, near laundry products.

You can also find it here on the Internet.

Note: sodium percarbonate is harmless to the environment, but be aware that it can be irritating to the skin. Thus, it is therefore preferable to use household gloves to handle it.
