<p>Keeping white clothes bright can be a challenge. Bleach can be a great refresher to your garments and keep them looking their best. However, you can't use bleach on every type of fabric.</p>

<p><strong>Bleaching Your White Clothes</strong></p>

<ul>
<li>- Make sure to check the care label.</li>
<li>- If it says "no bleach," don't use bleach. </li>
<li>- Test the garment in a hidden spot the first time you use bleach. </li>
<li>- If the item is safe, run it through your wash cycle as normal. </li>
<li>- Add the bleach as instructed by the manufacturer. Many machines have a bleach dispenser or use the detergent dispenser - avoid pouring bleach directly on the clothes. </li>
<li>- Dry as usual.  </li>
</ul>

<p>You may want to avoid bleaching your clothes each time you wash, even if they are bleach-safe. Instead, use a bleach alternative in your washing cycle or try a bluing-agent.</p><br>

<p><strong>Preventing Your Whites From Fading</strong></p><br>

<p>For clothes that cannot be bleached, take some care when washing. Separate your clothes into whites and colors. If you do have to run a load with both whites and colors, use a dye-grabbing cloth that will keep color from setting on your whites.</p><br>

<p>Attack stains as quick as possible. Don't forget to work on things you can't see, such as sweat marks on the collar or underarms. You can also rub a full-strength detergent on the area before washing - just give it 15 minutes or so before tossing it in the wash.</p><br>

<p>Always follow the instructions on the detergent bottle. Using too much or too little detergent prevents clothes from getting cleaned. Buy a high-quality detergent. Don't overload the washer. It needs to circulate the clothes to get them really clean. When drying clothes, follow the label for the right temperature. Over-drying will fade your clothes, too.</p><br>

<p>Take extra care with your laundry and your clothes will last longer and look better.</p>
