Clothes whiteners

[Jillius]

Does anyone know of a really good whitener to put in with my whites wash ? My daughter's school polo shirts are looking a bit dull. I can't use bleach as they have the school logo on. I've tried all sorts but nothing seems to work.
Thanks

hi Jillius
the stegess uses vanish.

How about Oxi wash ??

[Jillius]

I've tried Vanish but it didn't live up to my expectations. Having said that, Vanish do several products so perhaps I need to use a different one. I'll see what sainsbury's has this aft.

Thanks steg

[Jillius]

Is that the "safe" bleach ?

[Jillius]

sleepyj......that once happened to me ! That's why i know not to do it again lol

soda crystals are great add 1 cap full 2 your wash and there very cheap about 70p

[Jillius]

Will they sell them in the supermarket jammy ?

[puss_boots]

Soda Crystals, you can get them from any supermarket usually next to the soap powders etc and only cost about 60p. I live in a house that has no mains water we have a well and also a septic tank. I cannot use bleach of any kind but a cup full of soda crystals in your soap drawer as well as your usual detergent really makes your whites shine.

Great stuff.....I'll get them this afternoon. Thanks all !

I use Glo-White in wash sachets all the time on my work shirts and Dylon in wash starch instead of softener.
My shirts always come up a treat and I'm very proud of my whites.
