My kids are 16 and 19 years old but I still always have it on hand. For even worse stains on whites, try full bleach (we have White King).<br />If they get beyond redemption, tie dye them another colour for an extra seasons wear.<br /><br />Cheers - JoolzJoolzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490462580345458546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003449481427890465.post-4736885875400505832010-04-22T03:48:18.507-05:002010-04-22T03:48:18.507-05:00I love the look of white Ts, but--like V--I have a...I love the look of white Ts, but--like V--I have a well and I avoid buying white.

It really does wonders. Maybe presoak your t's in that would work?Sonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820824819352161079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003449481427890465.post-67287185637186791992010-04-20T23:42:37.603-05:002010-04-20T23:42:37.603-05:00We have well water so it's useless to have any...We have well water so it's useless to have anything white!
