How to remove stains when machine washing clothes

Owing to our busy schedules most of us prefer machines washing clothes rather than hand washing them. The reason behind this preference is simple, it saves time and is also very convenient to use. But, when it comes to stains, machine washing garments can get tricky. Have there not been instances when some stains just don’t seem to go, no matter how many times you wash them, or even worse, get transferred into other clothes that you wash along with it, which previously had no stains? However, this does not mean that you need to hand wash stained clothes. Our washing machines today, are all well equipped to quickly remove all sorts of stains. All you need to do is read the tips below, and keep them in mind while loading stained clothes in your machine.

1. Sort of clothes

It is very important that you sort your clothes before loading the machine. Stained clothes can stain other clean clothes too, therefore it’s always advisable to wash them separately even after the stains have been pre-treated. White and other light coloured clothes are more susceptible to getting stained from other dirty clothes than the dark ones, hence, you should always wash them separately.

2. Different methods for different stains

It is not advisable to put water on every stain as soon as you notice it. A lot of times you can simply scrape them off entirely or at least get rid of the excesses once it is dry. Some stains tend to get transferred from one garment to another, making your job more difficult. Therefore, it is important that you first eradicate them by pre-treating them in whichever way best suits it. For instance, turmeric stains can be scraped off whereas ink stains need to be pre-treated with a detergent.

3. The right detergent

A lot of stain removing detergents have an immense amount of chemical content in them. These might remove the stain but they ultimately end up causing irreparable damage to the fabric. Therefore, it is advisable that you use Champion Premium Detergent Powder as it has a triple-action cleaning formula that helps to not only remove all sorts of stains from your clothes but also helps in conditioning the fabric thereby increasing its lifespan.

4. The temperature of the water

Another important thing that you need to keep in mind is the temperature of water used in cleaning the stained clothes. It is a common misconception that it is best to use warm water when it comes to removing stains, but a lot of stains are best treated when you used cold water, for instance, bloodstains. When using hot water, it is essential that you check the garment’s care label because many garments tend to get shrunk when washed with hot water. Therefore, it is always wise to check beforehand to avoid damaging the fabric.

5. The correct setting

Make sure that you use the correct setting when washing these clothes in your machine. Most washing machines today have an option for washing stained or too soiled clothes separately. It is important that you wash them using this setting, as quick washing them with other clothes will not help in removing the stains.

Just follow these simple tips and use Champion Blue Detergent Powder, and you will find your job of removing stains from clothes a lot easier than before.

Scrap off the excesses from the stain with a spoon. Once done, apply a pinch of Champion Blue detergent powder and put the stained area under running water. You will find the stain getting bleak in most instances.

Why you need the finest woolen fabric detergent for sweaters?

The season of chill is upon us and we all know what effects that can have on the style statement! Sweaters become your best office wear. Coming in various shades and styles, there is a certain charm about sweaters that the modern-day jackets can never emulate. It stays formal and makes you look stylish all at the same time. But, sweaters look at their dazzling best when they are kept clean and perfect. Now, sweaters are made with similar-looking but different fabrics (such as woolen, cashmere, and Angoras). And that is why you should choose a liquid detergent that is rough on neither of the materials. 

What can happen with the wrong choice of detergent?

As mentioned before, sweaters compliment a part of the formal attire. And like any other formal attire, sweaters should look neat and clean. If you happen to use a wrong liquid detergent to wash your sweaters it will start appearing lackluster in no time at all. If your sweater shrinks or stretches abnormally in size, it is the first sign that your liquid detergent is not quite up to the mark. The second sign comes when you see the colors of the sweater fade in certain sections. Soon those ugly woolen balls, aka Fuzz, would appear on the sweater and that means it is time to discard them!

How to clean sweaters with the right detergent?

The liquid detergent you choose for sweater care should be made with a champion formula in anti-shrink, anti-stretch, and anti-fuzz technology. These will keep the original features of the sweater intact, even if you have to wash the sweater many times during the winters. Once you have zeroed in on such a champion liquid detergent for woolens, it is now time to start cleaning. And here are some steps you should take recourse to:

  • Wash the sweater in lukewarm water with a mild liquid detergent. Press off the extra water and detergent from the sweater. Make sure you do not twist or wring the sweater as this may stretch the fabric.
  • Now, lay down the wet sweater on a dry towel. Once the sweater has been properly placed inside the towel, just roll it up. Press the towel to remove the excess water and repeat the process until the sweater is dry.
  • Lay the sweater on top of another dry towel and leave to be air-dried. Once dried, fold the sweater delicately, so that there are no creases.
  • And you are done!

So, go about flaunting your stylish sweaters, for the season demands it!
