How to bleach clothes in the sun?

To bleach clothes, there are many ways to do it and most with chemicals such as bleach or chlorine. But there are also other methods to bleach your clothes that, although they may be somewhat less effective, are not as abrasive for clothing.

Thus, it is about using natural products that, in turn, are safe for the environment and that is why in this article of a laundry pickup and delivery, we will learn how to bleach clothes in the sun.

Steps to follow:

1. First, you should put in a large enough water bowl with detergent to wash by hand and the juice or juice of a couple of lemons. Dip the clothes you want to bleach in that water and let them stand for at least 30 minutes. You can see more details about this step in our article about how to use lemon as laundry bleach.

2. After this time, rinse your linen and proceed to wash it as you usually do, which is in the washing machine and with the program that best suits the type of fabric. Do not fear the smell of lemon, as this will disappear and your clothes will not give off that aroma.

3. Once washed, hang the white clothes in a place with direct sunlight, either on ropes that you can have in the garden, terrace or terrace or by locating the folding clothesline in a place where the sun directly affects. The sun's rays will bring a whiter color to your clothes and eliminate those yellowish tones that occur over time and we hate so much.

4. It will be advisable to store clothes in the sun at the central times of the day when solar radiation is most powerful. Also, you should let the clothes dry for several hours to make the whitening of your clothes more effective. It should be noted that - while improving the intensity of the target - you will be saving energy since you will not use the dryer to dry your clothes.

5. Remember that, contrary to what we indicate with the white clothes, you should never tend your black clothes in the sun, since all you will get is that it can fade and acquire a horrible appearance. So, your dark clothes should always be dried in the shade to protect their tone and avoid spoiling them.
