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.

 

Love embroidered clothing? Here’s how you protect them.

Oh how beautiful even a little well-knit embroidery work makes our garments look! It does not matter what fabric it is, be it cotton, silk or even wool, it looks absolutely exquisite in them all. It is very important that we take proper care of these garments while laundering them owing to all the hard work that was invested in beautifully knitting them. It is true that nowadays even the embroidery done with machines looks equally good, but you can still make out the difference between a hand-knit and machine-knit piece of clothing. Be it hand-knit or machine-knit embroidery work, the following care instructions must be kept in mind while dealing with these clothes. 

 

 

  • Try to hand-wash them.

 

It is always best to hand-wash clothes that are delicate, and just like embellished clothes, these garments should be hand-washed too. Just pre-treat stains and then fill a bucket of water and add some Champion Blue detergent powder in it and wash the clothes gently. You may also use bleach when you find the colour getting dull. It is always desirable to read the care instructions given on the label carefully, and then wash the clothing accordingly to avoid unpleasant surprises.

 

 

  • Check if the embroidery threads bleed colour.

 

A lot of times the threads of an embroidered garment tend to run colour, and damage the entire garment and even the other garments that you wash along with it. Therefore, it is also advisable to have this checked before you wash it. All you need to do is take a wet white cloth and rub it over the threads and then check if the threads bleed colour; and even if they don’t, just make sure to wash these clothes in cold water using Champion Blue to prevent colour run. 

 

 

  • Consider home dry-cleaning.

 

Home dry cleaning kits are easily available in the market, and you can even order them online. These come handy when your garments are not too soiled and you still want to clean them but not wash them. However, you should always check for colour fastness before starting to work on it. You can even try vacuuming these clothes, and if they’re still dirty or not bright enough, you can always let a professional dry cleaner take care of it.

 

 

  • Take care while ironing.

 

Ironing these clothes might get tricky if you do not know the correct way of doing it. Many complain that the threads break or melt on ironing. Just a little bit of precaution will save you from this. All you need to do is turn the garment inside out and then press it. If you want to iron on the front side, you should always place a cloth or a paper on the top of your garment while you iron it. You should also avoid using a steam iron for this purpose.

 

 

  • Storing embroidered clothes.

 

Try your best to hang your embroidered clothes and not fold them, as that might affect the thread work. You can also roll them up and keep them in a pile but just make sure that you do not place anything heavy on them to avoid them from getting creased.

 

That’s now! Now all you need to do is go ahead and dauntlessly flaunt those beautiful embroidered garments this Puja.

Easy steps to remove chocolate stains

From chocolate fondue to chocolate ice-cream, everything that has anything to do with chocolate is just irresistibly scrumptious. We delve so much into the mouth-watering taste that we start resembling children and we even act like them when we carelessly drop it on our garments and end up with stains that seem difficult to remove. Now does that mean that you should be careful while eating chocolate? Absolutely not! You do justice to it only by plunging into these delicacies; don’t let the stains stop it. All you need to do is know how you can get rid of these stains totally and easily, and then continue diving into the world of cocoa.

 

Step 1- At the very beginning of the process of fighting this stain, we deal with it exactly as we deal with the rest of the stains, that is, by pre-treating it. Do not put water on the stain as soon as you notice it. A lot of times you can simply scrape it off or at least the excesses once it is dry. It is after that, that you should start working on it. First off, put some Champion Blue detergent powder on the stain. If you’re wondering why we stressed on Champion Blue, it is because it fights stains more adroitly than any other detergent powder at your disposal. Its StainGo ColourPro technology helps remove stains in a jiffy and keeps the fabric safe as well. Then, rub the affected area with a brush. In this step it is essential that you make sure to not scrape it or brush it too hard, or you would risk damaging the fabric of the clothing. 

 

Step 2- Turn the portion inside out and wash the backside of the affected area with cold water or soda water. This loosens the chocolate molecules and helps to remove the stain easily. If for some reason you cannot turn the clothing inside out, all you need to do is just put some soda water on the affected area. After this is done, put the entire clothing inside a bucket full of cold water, and let it soak in it for 15 minutes. Rub the affected area every 5 minutes, and you will see the stain slowly disappear.

 

Step 3- Now you just need to put the clothing inside your washing machine or hand-wash it, with Champion Blue detergent. If you are going to wash it with the rest of the clothes, you need to make sure that the stain has totally disappeared, otherwise, you will risk damaging the rest of the clothes as well, as the chocolate molecules might get transferred to and settle into other clothes.

 

Step 4- Once you are done washing the garment; it is time to dry it. Ensure that there are no stains left before tumble drying the clothing. Tumble drying a stained garment would just make the stain permanent, as the heat helps the molecules to get settled into the fabric. The same goes for ironing. Hence, proceed to this step only when you are sure that you have successfully rid yourself of the stain. However, if you follow these instructions be rest assured that the stain will definitely go away in step 2.

 

Finally comes the most important step- pat yourself on the back, wear the garment again and go have more chocolates.

Easy tips for removing ink stains from clothes

Are you tired of trying to remove ink stains from your most liked and treasured garments in vain? Well, don’t worry about it anymore. Here are some simple tips, tested and tried, to remove those stains in a jiffy. So the next time you have a massive ink spillage in your shirt pocket, because you forgot to put the lid on your pen, or you have some sort of an ink mishap at your workplace, just take a deep breath and follow these advice once you’re back home, and instantly rid your garments of it.

  • Using alcohol Pre-treating a stain with alcohol helps to fade it, and thus makes the process of removing it a lot easier. In general ball-point inks are more difficult to remove than the gel ones. So, if it is a ball-point pen ink that you’re dealing with, you might have to wash it with very warm water more than once after pre-treating it to get rid of the mark completely.
  • The right detergent- The key to removing these stains is choosing the correct detergent. This also saves you from washing a garment multiple times to get rid of the stain. We suggest you use Champion Blue for this purpose, as it’s StainGo ColourPro Technology has a double-action cleaning formula that helps remove stains without having to invest too much labor in the task. All you need to do is, pre-treat the stain with Champion Blue detergent powder, and let it sit for 10 minutes before washing it, and you’ll find the stain completely gone after you’re done washing it.
  • Hairspray- Usually hairsprays have a consistent amount of alcohol content and this is what helps in removing the stain. You just need to spray a little bit of the product on the stain and let it sit for 5 minutes. Once that’s done wash the garment or just the portion that you’re working on making sure that you’ve successfully washed off all the hairspray from your clothing.
  • Nail polish remover- Even though this is probably the most effective way of removing ink stains, it is best that you consider this as your last resort owing to the damage that it is going to cause to the fabric. If it is a massive ink stain that you are working on, it is best that you apply the nail polish remover on a little portion of the fabric first, to ensure that it does not damage it completely, and then apply it on the entire affected area.
  • Vinegar and cornstarch mixture- To remove ink stains using this mixture, you need to first apply vinegar on the stain and let it sit for 5 minutes. Once that’s done, you need to mix 3 teaspoons of vinegar with 4 teaspoons of cornstarch, and apply this mixture on the fabric. Once it dries up, wash the garment with hot water and detergent.

Try these tricks to remove ink stains and find them gone instantly. After pre-treating the clothes using these methods, it is essential that you wash the clothes with the right detergent. This final process of washing the garment with suitable detergent ensures that the stain is completely gone. So, hurry and order Champion Blue right away to champion the skill of removing stains!

Understanding the symbols on labels

 

Understanding the symbols on labels

Most of the times you tend to ignore the warning labels on your clothes until the damage is done after a wash or two and it’s too late to reverse the action. A lot of times you also have trouble understanding those labels because you have no idea whatsoever about what symbols given on the label really means, so you just choose the more convenient option of ignoring it. If you’re lucky, you might have washed your garments in the right way unknowingly, but if you are not, you risk ruining your favourite clothes. To avoid such risks, it is always advisable to pay heed to the symbols given on the label. Moreover, it’s the easiest task in the world to understand them, just read on to figure out what they mean.

Washing symbols:

The above symbols suggest the appropriate temperatures for washing the concerned clothes. The dots indicate the temperature that you should set on your washing machine, and they vary according to the fabric of the garment. For instance, one dot suggests 30°C, the clothes having this symbol should be washed with cold water, two dots means 40°C, these clothes require warm water, three dots suggests 50°C, these clothes need to be washed in hot water, and so on.

This is the hand-wash symbol. A garment that has this label should not be washed in the washing machine, or you risk damaging the fabric. Wash these in a tab or a bucket and ensure that all the detergent is washed off it before you hand it to dry. It is also important to use a delicate detergent while you hand-wash clothes. We recommend Champion Premium Detergent Powder for this purpose. It not only helps protect colour and fight stains but also conditions the fabric to keep it soft and it’s floral fragrance helps maintain its freshness.

Drying symbols:

The square with a circle inside is the basic dryer symbol. The number of dots inside the circle, determine the temperature in which you must set up your dryer for the concerned clothes. It also determines the specific program settings. One dot means Tumble Dry Low, two dots means Tumble Dry Medium and three dots means Tumble Dry High. The line underneath denotes the setting that needs to be used. A single line indicates the Permanent Press setting and the double line indicates that the Delicate Press setting must be used.

Dry clean symbols:

A circle symbol in your label means that your garment requires dry cleaning. The letters A, F and P help your dry cleaner understand what solvent he needs to use to dry clean your garments. A indicates that all solvents can be used, F suggests that only Petroleum solvents can be used and P means that any solvent except Trichloroethylene can be used. The symbol that has the cross on the circle indicates that that particular garment should not be dry cleaned.

Ironing Symbols:

The ironing symbols are just as simple as the rest of them. The first symbol on the image is the basic ironing symbol, the dots in the symbols indicate the temperature in which the clothes need to be ironed, and the last symbol indicates that that particular clothing must not be ironed.

Step by step guide to remove mud stains

Step by step guide to remove mud stains

However refreshing the rainy season be, it also brings along with it a problem that none of us who step outdoors during this time can escape from. Yeah, you’re right- it’s mud stains. It does not matter how careful we are of not stepping into a puddle or in avoiding mud slashes, they’re just unavoidable. Being unable to get rid of these splatters, leads to a lot of annoyance, as most times it makes us unwillingly give up clothes that we love dearly. Wouldn’t it be great if we could enjoy the season without any worries. Curious? Let’s walk through the step by step procedure of getting rid of them in the twinkling of an eye.

Step 1: Let the mud dry

Before washing or trying to clean the mud stain with water, it is essential that you let it dry for a little while. The process is complete when the mud feels dry when touched and gets lighter in colour. Once it has a crumbly appearance it is time for us to start working on it by proceeding to the next step. Not drying it prior to washing can worsen the stain, which would further lead to more hard work in removing it.

Step 2: Scrape it off

Once it has a friable appearance, we can easily scrape it off. For doing so, you should take the help of a spoon or a blunt knife. However, you should keep in mind to be gentle during the process and not dig at the fabric with the object you are using too harshly.

Step 3: Scrub with detergent

After you have successfully removed the dry portions, it is time to pre-treat it using a detergent. Not all detergents help in removing mud marks, and even if they do, they end up hardening the portion of the fabric which was muddy. Therefore, we recommend you to use Champion Blue Premium Detergent Powder, as it helps remove stubborn stains from your clothes while keeping them shiny, soft and vibrant. Just take a little bit of the powder and scrub it over the blotched portion with the help of a toothbrush, and in just a few minutes you will see it vanish. Then, we proceed to the next step.

Step 4: Machine wash or hand wash

Once we are done with treating the stain, we proceed to the next step where we load the garment, which we are working on, with the other garments which we need to wash in the washing machine. The same goes for hand-washing. Do not rinse off the detergent that you used to pre-treat the stain before this step. Keeping it helps ensure there’s no trace of it left after the wash.

Step 5: Air dry

The final step in this process is to air dry your clothes. Until they are completely dry, you cannot make sure whether you have successfully gotten rid of the mark or not. However, if you chose Champion Blue as your partner in fighting mud stains, you can rest assured that they are long gone!So next time it drizzles, don’t disturb your daily routine for it, and just put up your umbrellas or put on your rain-coats and walk out like a pro to enjoy the beautiful season.

The proper way to deal with your whites

Isn’t it just inevitable for our white garments to get stained, in one way or another, or become less vivid, over a period of time? Its such a pity when they turn pale after just a month’s use, and we need to discard them just because they’re no more the same as they once were when we had bought them. But, what if I told you that a few simple precautions and orderly washing habits could keep them as good as new? Read on to discover how simple it really is:

#1. Separate clothes

The first and the most important point to that we need to take care of is, to wash them separately. There are many clothes which leak dyes from them, and the garments most susceptible to stains and to soak up other colours, are obviously our whites. A little segregation can go a long way in safeguarding the natural colour of our garments.

#2. Act promptly on a stain

We often tend to act on evident stains but ignore the unnoticeable ones like the sweat marks on our clothes, for instance under the arms and behind the collar, but letting them build up results in them becoming permanent, recalcitrant marks which are difficult to remove in the long run. We should therefore pay attention to these stains and wash them off as quickly as we can. Your friend in need to remove stains is Champion Matic, which is a quick action stain remover. It works like no other detergent, in not only removing the stain, but also protecting the fabric’s colour from fading.

#3. The fabric matters

Different fabrics need to be treated in different ways. Read the care instructions given on the label properly, to not cause damage to it in the process of cleaning it. Some cotton and linen clothes, for instance, should not be washed with very warm water as they tend to get shrunk. When it comes to polyester, on the other hand, hot water is the only solution for you to remove stains. Hence, to avoid the fabric from getting faded or mangled, make sure to sort your whites according to the fabric after you are done sorting them out of your other clothes.

#4. Use as much detergent as needed

 

When on the one hand using too much of detergent can harm the fabric of your garments, using too less, on the other hand, can lead to it not helping much in the washing process. Be careful to pre-treat a stain before putting the garment in the machine, and use only as much detergent as is required.

 

#5. Use very hot water to treat stains

 

Hot water helps erase stains very swiftly, and also helps remove sweat marks from clothes. Nevertheless, we need to be careful as the use of hot water on a cloth, over a long period of time, results in it fading and tarnishing the fabric. Even though it’s true that we can invariably bleach our white clothes to bring back their colour, but we should always read the care labels carefully to prevent damaging the fabric.

 

So go ahead, and follow these simple tips and use the Champion Matic which, with its anti-dye transfer, anti fuzz and anti-fade technology will keep your spotless whites the same always.

The proper way to handle your towels

Did you know that keeping your towels in the perfect condition is as easy as washing them? Yes, by just implementing a little bit of care in handling them and by using the right technique for washing them, we can help them last really long. We refrain from using those which stiffen over a period of time, or get faded to the extent that you reflexively choose the other one on the rack, but wouldn’t it be great if we could keep them all as bright and soft as those hotel towels you adore are! So, let’s learn how we can do it.

  1. Wash once or twice a week

It is not necessary to wash them daily if you air dry them after use. Washing them on a regular basis damages the fabric, therefore, a wash in every three to four days is good enough. However, you obviously need to wash them, for the sake of hygiene, more often than twice a week, if your towels develop a smell or if you have used it to clean dirt.

  1. The detergent matters!

Towels tend to get faded, scratchy and stiff with repeated washes. This happens when you use too much detergent, and when you use the wrong one. While washing them, you should use half the amount of detergent you use for washing other clothes. When it comes to the choice of detergent, it is of utmost importance that you choose one that would protect the fabric of the towels as well as keep them from fading. So, get rid of those harsh washing powders and switch to Champion Blue as it’s StainGo ColourPro Technology helps fight stains, protects colour and also helps maintain the freshness of your towels.

  1. The right temperature for washing

The fabric of your towel helps determine the correct temperature required to wash it. Irrespective of that, if they are dirty, it is recommended that you wash them using hot water, as it helps sanitise them. When it comes to colour, the light coloured ones can be washed in hot water, but very hot water can make the dark coloured ones bleed.

  1. Try to wash them separately

Since they are very absorbent, it is advisable to wash them separately as they soak up colours from clothes that bleed faster than most other clothing materials in your laundry. Also, never wash the towels that you use to clean dirt, along with your other clothes because the dirt then gets transferred to all the clothes that you’re washing, as well.

  1. Drying your towels

You should hang your bath-towels to dry each time after use. Not doing so, and just leaving them rolled up in a corner can result in the growth of mildew. If you plan on drying them in a dryer, be it after a wash or use, make sure to read the care instructions carefully before doing so. To refrain from damaging the fabric, avoid drying them for too long inside the dryer. Air-drying, on the other hand, is a great option, as sunlight helps to kill the germs as well.

 

All it takes to start preserving all your towels is choosing the right detergent and knowing the correct way to deal with them. So just follow these advices and get Champion Blue to keep your towels immaculate always.

Nothing should come between you and the Mangoes!
