What's the best way to get white socks / clothes looking like new again? In hindsight, not the greatest idea to wear new white crew socks on a dusty hike. I soaked in Napisan for hours before washing but they still look dirty.
Sards wonder soap. Put a sock on each hand, grab the wet soap and lather the shit out of them, then chuck them in the wash with the soap still on.
ok, I might try that with some cool tea towels I've got that I just can't get white
( and it's no wonder my nails are always wrecked )
You'll know it works if the suds turn a slightly different colour (dirt coming loose).
