How to Clean Yellowed Clothing

Lay the garment onto a flat surface. Pour liquid laundry soap directly onto each yellow stain. Work the soap into the stain with a plastic scrub brush and allow it to remain for 10 to 15 minutes.

Create a mixture of 1 gallon warm water and 1 tbsp. white vinegar in a plastic bucket. Throw the pre-treated garment into the bucket and allow it to remain for 30 minutes. The white vinegar will begin to naturally bleach the yellow stains from the garment.

Remove the garment from the bucket, gently squeeze out any excess liquid and throw it into the washing machine. Add 1/2 cup liquid laundry soap and 1/4 cup oxygen bleach powder to the washing machine. The oxygen bleach powder is safe for use on colored fabrics as well.

Wash the yellowed garment according to the label's direction. Remove the garment and hang it outside in the sun to dry. The sun's rays will gently remove any remaining yellowing.
