Why it works
Why it works
This stain removal trick works effectively thanks to the combined actions of dish soap, baking soda, and hydrogen peroxide. Each helps break down and lift stains in a unique way:
1. Dish soap
Function: Dish soap is a surfactant, which means it helps break down and lift oils and grease. Many stains, especially food-based ones, have an oily component. Dish soap breaks down these oils, making the stain easier to remove.
2. Hydrogen peroxide
Function: Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizing agent that breaks down the chemical structure of stains, especially those caused by organic compounds like blood, wine, or food. It has a bleaching effect, helping to remove color-based stains from fabrics without being as harsh as bleach.
3. Baking soda
Function: Baking soda is mildly abrasive, which helps remove loose stain particles. It also acts as a deodorizer, neutralizing odors trapped in the fabric. Baking soda also slightly raises the pH of the mixture, enhancing the stain-fighting power of the other ingredients.
And that’s it! With just a few simple steps, you’ll find those stubborn stains gone, leaving your clothes spotless. This trick is not only a time-saver, but also incredibly effective, giving you peace of mind and spotless clothes with minimal effort. Try it and you’ll be amazed at the results!
