•Always dilute fabric softeners with 125 mL (1⁄2 cup) to 250 mL (1 cup) warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.
•Add diluted fabric softener only in the final rinse.
•Fabric softeners should not be mixed with other laundry products because greasy stains may form. If stains form, remove by wetting the stain and rubbing with liquid detergent or a bar of soap. Rewash the stained item.
•Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, use less fabric softener,
or use it less often. | 15 |
