For most top-loading washing machines, do not use more than 1 cup of liquid chlorine bleach. For hand washing, do not use more that 1 tablespoon of bleach per gallon of water. Mix the bleach with lots of water before mixing with soapy wash water. Otherwise the bleach may make holes in the fabrics. Rinse clothes well to remove the bleach, as it may weaken the clothes if it stays in them.
Most oxygen bleaches are powders.
They can be safely used on any clothes that need bleaching and are safe for all fabrics, fabric finishes, and colored fabrics. A variety of oxygen bleach products are available. Add oxygen bleach to the wash water. Most oxygen bleaches work best in hot water. Follow directions on the package.
