Stain Removal
• Many soils will not become stains if treated
promptly. Older stains may be difficult or
impossible to remove. Hot water will set
some stains, particularly protein based
stains. Use cold or warm water on these
before washing in hot water.
• Always follow the instructions on the
clothing care label and instructions on stain
removal products.
• When removing a stain, treat the stain from
the back of the fabric unless otherwise
noted. This will force the stain off the
surface instead of driving it through the
fabric.
• Always test to be sure that a stain removal
product will not damage fabric by applying to
a small part of the fabric that is not easily
seen.
Bleach Alternatives • In some cases, mild bleaching may be accomplished
using white vinegar, hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice as
a pretreater.
• An oxygen bleach may be used in the wash cycle.
• Always test to be sure that the
product will not damage fabric by
applying to a small part of the
fabric that is not easily seen.
Fabric Softeners • Use to soften clothes and remove static electricity
from permanent press knits and other fabrics of
manufactured fibers.
• Add during the rinse cycle, or use the fabric softener
dispenser, using no other product in the rinse. Follow
bottle directions carefully.
• Undiluted fabric softener poured
directly on clothes can stain them.
• Do not mix with detergent or
bleach.
Laundry Aids Use Comments
Never put highly flammable substances like gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils,

cleaned with such substances into a washer or dryer. Failure to comply with these
warnings could result in a fire, explosion, and/or serious burns or death. All items with
these substances on them should be thoroughly hand-washed with a detergent so that
no trace of the flammable substances remains. The articles can then be machine
washed and/or dried.
