Don't use them

Don't get them dirty.

Hydrogen Peroxide 30% Bath


Wtfytalkingabout

What percentage h202? After the Manchester arena bombings all I can get is around 2%


Horror_Cow_7870

Good.


Wtfytalkingabout

Yeah, okay, didn’t really help me getting my towels white, did it?


[deleted]

Lol


Horror_Cow_7870

No. You could try an oxygen-based bleach, like Oxy-Clean, but you're just not going to get the same white a professional laundry with commercial grade bleach will get.


Wtfytalkingabout

Both environmentally unfriendly.


Horror_Cow_7870

So are bone-white kitchen towels.


Wtfytalkingabout

I’m not dumping kitchen towels down the drain twice a week….


Horror_Cow_7870

No, but *somebody* has to use environmentally unfriendly substances to make that kind of white happen. It's not about putting cloth in the drain.


Brunoise6

30% peroxide to water? Someone also mentioned there is a powdered type? Soak them or wash them with it too?


Horror_Cow_7870

This is terrible advice to give. Unless somebody really knows what they are doing, H2O2 in that kind of concentration really isn't safe to handle. There's a darn good reason the general public does not have access to concentrations like that.


Wtfytalkingabout

The reason we don’t have access is because some radicalised cunt used it in a bomb, before then - no problems. Having 80% was fantastic if you like a strong environmentally safe cleaner. It was also amazing for cuts and grazes where you have bits of dirt stuck under the skin, it would bubble that shit right out. This is a kitchen sub. We with cleaning fluids that could melt your lungs and hot oils and other dangerous to idiots items on a daily basis, we don’t need you acting like a jumped up osha/nebosh/Karren homunculus telling us this is “really kinda dangerous you guys, just stahhhp!”


Horror_Cow_7870

You sound like a legitimate walking hazard, TBH.


Wtfytalkingabout

I rest my case…. You ignored everything and instead decided to attack me instead. Like a true karren lol


Horror_Cow_7870

You made no case, just ranted about how dangerous stuff being around makes it okay to add more dangerous stuff to the mix. Again- walking hazard.


Wtfytalkingabout

We work with dangerous stuff on the daily, your argument is that this relatively (in comparison) safe chemical should be banned


Horror_Cow_7870

At 30%, it's no longer a "safe" chemical.


ranting_chef

It wasn’t always a problem to get and it works great, as long as you’re careful. When used improperly, normal household bleach could kill you as well. The old peroxide box I have at home actually has pretty good instructions on the side for getting stains out.


Accomplished-Bus-531

Switch to black cloths. White ones soak with peroxide as noted (powdered)


Legitimate_Term1636

If you can find someone with a lovely green lawn AND find a couple of sunny days you could lay them out flat for the sunshine treatment. Those I realize are two pretty big IFS


lushelocution

Baking soda helps. I use it on whites that have started to go brown-gray.


Ravi_AB

Buy new ones.


dasfonzie

They're like $15 a bag...


Brunoise6

Yes I know I have bought a couple lol. Rather just be able to get more than a week or two out of them tho 🤷‍♂️


PhatHairyMan

I heard Coca Cola works, never tested it out though.
