A really great stain removal recipe!

I bought a old floral tablecloth from eBay and was looking for a way to remove all the stains from it. I found this recipe and let the tablecloth soak over night in the mixture. All the stains are gone and the white on it is now white and not yellowed!!

5 min 5 min prep

1/2 cup clorox 2 powder bleach

1/2 cup ivory liquid dishwashing soap (original formula)

  1. You can make this using any amount of"ingredients", as long as the Clorox 2 Powder (it MUST be the powder) and Ivory dishwashing liquid are mixed in equal parts. If "Ivory Joy dishwashing liquid" continues to appear, be aware that this is IVORY not Joy liquid.
  2. Add luke warm water to the mixture, enough to make a sudsy'bath' for your items.
  3. Let the garment (s) sit covered in the water for at least one hour.
  4. Check to see if the stain has disappeared.
  5. If it is still there, soak until the stain is gone.

I used Ultra Ivory cause I couldn't find the original. Worked fine!
