Can You Put Bleach in Washing Machine With White Clothes?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You have a green light to put bleach in the washing machine with white clothes<\/strong> and a big red light to use for colored clothes<\/strong>. Even if you can bleach your white clothes, you must read their label<\/strong>. Not all **white fabrics are suitable for bleaching<\/strong>, especially if you opt for chlorine-based bleach<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**If the clothes are suitable for bleaching, you should continue with the second step. The second step is regarding the right way of using the bleach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n**
Never pour bleach directly on the clothes<\/strong>. Instead, **make a solution<\/strong> by mixing a small amount of bleach and a lot of water. To determine how much bleach you may need, you should consider the stain and its cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
When washing white clothes with bleach, consider **using a** **high-temperature cycle<\/a> and an extra rinse optio<\/strong>n. You must be 100% sure that the clothes are washed and rinsed well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**Tips for Using Bleach in Washing Machine<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n**
Sort the laundry<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
To prevent messing up the clothes, it is best to **separate and sort them out first<\/strong>. This tip is mainly related to the clothes labels. You must check them when sorting the laundry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**We know that white clothes can be washed at high temperatures and bleached. However, we often don\u2019t check the labels, and we damage garments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**Sorting the laundry will also prevent accidentally loading colored clothes that somehow get stuck between the white clothes, like a sock or underwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**

Determine the stain difficulty and load size<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Once you have sorted the laundry, you should determine how much bleach you will need for the stain to get off the garment during the cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the stain is light <\/strong>and caused by coffee, wine, or food, you can go with \u00bc or \u00bd cup of bleach<\/strong>. Adjust the bleach amount to the clothes amount. **Fewer garments – less bleach; more garments – more bleach.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**Pour the bleach into the bleach dispenser and add some water (optional). If the stain is greasy and stubborn, you should add \u2153 or \u2154 cup of bleach into the dispenser. <\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**The amount of bleach will depend on the number of clothes you will wash with bleach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
Choose the right bleach type<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
As you might already know, there are two types of bleach available on the market. The one we often use is **chlorine bleach<\/strong>. This type of bleach is powerful and should be used only on white clothes, suitable for bleaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**The other type of bleach is** oxygen bleach<\/strong><\/a>. This type is safe even for **dark and colored clothes<\/strong>. The lack of chlorine makes this bleach safe for colors and sensitive clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
Extra rinse cycle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Once you get through all previous steps, you should run another **short rinse cycle<\/strong> to ensure there are no traces of the bleach or detergent on the clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
**Also, the extra rinse cycle will eliminate the bleach odor, especially if you use chlorine bleach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**
Materials You Should Never Add Bleach On<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The clothes that are made of the following materials should never be bleached:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Wool<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Leather<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Spandex<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Silk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Check the label on the garment before deciding to bleach it. If the label says the garment has even a small percentage of these four materials, do not use bleach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
