Removing mold stains
1
Remove excess
First, run the garment under hot running water to remove any excess mold 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 mold stained garment. Fill a sink or bucket with warm water and add half a scoop of Ariel Automatic Powder Original. Mix the solution by hand until the detergent is completely dissolved.
3
Soak
Add your mold 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 for wash
Gently wring out the excess water before adding it to your wash with similar items.
5
Wash
Wash on temperature indicated by the care label. Wash as usual with Ariel, making sure to dose correctly. Always make sure to follow the instructions on your garment’s care label.
6
Unload
Then, when the wash cycle is over, simply remove the items and you’re ready to go.
