If you want to dye your cotton white, we'll show you how.
Steps
1 Look at the label on your clothing. There may be information on whitening there.
2 Never mix whiteness with ammonia or ammonia. It can burn skin or clothing.
3 The fabric should be of a uniform color. Many fabrics cannot be bleached - silk, spandex, silk acetate, and stretch fabrics. After bleaching, the fabric is weakened.
4 Whiteness serves as a bleaching and disinfecting agent for light-colored cottons such as underwear or socks. Do not pour whiteness directly onto the fabric; use it in the washing machine.
5 Fill a bucket or special compartment in your washing machine with white.
6 Put things in white and leave for a while.
- If the fabric does not lighten, add a more concentrated whiteness solution after a few hours.
7 Rinse the fabric.
- Drain and rinse with cold water. You can use the rinse mode in the washing machine. Be careful with whiteness.

8 Take another bucket and fill it with hydrogen peroxide. Leave it on for 15 minutes. This way, the whiteness will not continue to corrode the fabric.

Tips
- Wear gloves and goggles.

- Wear old clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.
Warnings
- Don't panic if the fabric gets an odd color or stains. Just leave it whitened for longer.
