How to Whiten Sheets and Bedding

Whitening Bedding
Over time, it can be hard to keep your favourite crisp, white bedding in pristine condition. During the night, your sheets are subjected to body oils, sweat or makeup residue which can cause your sheets to discolour. But, keeping your bedding white doesn’t have to be a mammoth task with Vanish. The formula is designed to keep your white bedding bright and make your bed even more inviting.
To get white sheets whiter simply pre-treat, soak, or use in-wash with Vanish Oxi Action Crystal White Powder or Gel. Your sheets will be gleaming in no time.
Read on to learn more information on how to whiten white sheets.

Tips

Bleach is a no-no: You’ll be forgiven for thinking that bleach is the best way to get whites white. In fact, it stains and discolours them even more, making them yellow and brittle. Vanish contains no chlornie-bleach, which is why it leaves your whites brighter than ever.
Weekly washes: As mentioned above, your bedding gets its fair share of use during the night. Wash your bedding weekly to maintain good hygiene and remove any dust and dirt – always adding a scoop of Vanish to your washing machine to help restore whiteness.
