Removing mould stains
1
Remove excess
First, run the garment under hot running water to remove any excess mould from the fabric. The higher the water pressure, the easier it will be to remove any excess.
2
Prepare a Soaking Solution
You’ll need to pre-treat the mould stained garment. Fill a sink or bucket with warm water and add half a scoop of Ariel Original Washing Powder. Mix the solution by hand until the detergent is completely dissolved.
3
Soak
Add your mould stained garments to the solution and leave to soak for an hour. If the stained garment keeps floating to the top, place a white towel on top of it to keep it fully immersed in the soaking solution.
4
Preparing to wash
Gently wring out the excess water before adding it to your wash with similar items.
5
Wash
Wash as usual with Ariel, making sure to dose correctly. Always make sure to follow the instructions on your garment’s washing clothes symbols on the care label.
6
Unload
Then, when the wash cycle is over, simply remove the items and you’re ready to go.
