Woohooo! Let’s get strippin’ !<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Okay not quite like that… but still satisfying!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, I have to be totally honest… Showing this nasty picture of my first laundry stripping experience is kind of embarrassing! And what you don’t get from this picture is the smell! …oh the smell… I was shocked that these freshly washed clothes that smelled like “Fresh Scent” actually still had stink and yuck in them…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what is laundry stripping anyway? This is the ultimate method to deep clean your laundry. You thought your washing machine was doing all the hard work for you, but a 40 minute wash cycle can only do so much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever opened up your top load washer to add in your favorite shirt after you’ve already began the wash cycle, only to catch a glimpse of the murky laundry water? Yeah… it’s nasty! Instead of just washing your clothes in gunky water, laundry stripping is designed to get ALL of that gunk out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stripping your laundry is a way to rid your clothes, towels, jeans, and anything else you launder (yes even your Lululemon leggings! I was brave and tried that for you… you’re welcome, but be gentle) of built up hard water, fabric softener residue, oil, sweat, grease, and stink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This method uses high powered yet gentle cleaning agents to chemically break down and remove imbedded grime from your most-worn clothes and towels. Laundry stripping has even removed deodorant stains from some of my favorite shirts! Laundry stripping towels is the best way to get rid of that weird stink that happens even after they are freshly washed. And laundry stripping comforters is perfect if you really want to enhance your sleep hygiene! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, wash your laundry like normal<\/strong>, but do not dry them. If the items you intend to strip are already clean, then you can skip this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stripping clean clothes is the most effective way to do this. Washing them first will act as a first pass to get out easy to wash out dirt and grime. This step is important because when you strip your laundry, you want to make sure you’re using the products to the fullest extent possible to get the best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you don’t wash out that easy to remove gunk first, then part of the power this method offers will be wasted on lifting easy to get grime first instead of diving into that set-in stuff. Clear the path of all the easy gunk to make it easier for laundry stripping to get to the hard, set-in stuff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
