I have completed the task of washing pillows in the past; however, my most recent goal was to not only clean them but also whiten them. The yellowing of our pillows, pillow covers, and mattress pads is caused by the accumulation of body oils, perspiration, and other substances over time. As a consequence of my experimentation with a variety of methods, I would want to share my findings. Another one of my wacky inventions may be found on this page.
Okay, let’s begin with the disclaimer, shall we? My pillows have been cleaned and dried, and as we all know, drying causes stains to become more permanent. As a result, I was aware that I would face certain difficulties before beginning my… Our pillows are like this, and mine is a shade of white that is somewhat off-white to begin with. It is difficult to detect the yellowing stains in this picture, but I assure you that they are there, and you will see more of them in the photographs that are to come… In addition to this, I cleaned the covers of my pillowcases in order to conduct a test to see how well this would work with them, as well as maybe with mattress pads.
The first thing you should do anytime you wash your pillows is to clean two at a time. This will help your washing machine maintain a balanced load. (Look at how yellow they are; it’s revolting.)
