    Angry Liquid Softner Question

    I read on a frugal site somewhere a tip in regards to using a couple of sprays of liquid softner on a washrag instead of dryer sheets.

    I did this and it works great except for one thing. Several items of my son's clothing now have blue stains on them that won't come out !!



    Anyone ever tried this too??

    I have been doing this for years with no problems..... My fabric softner is pink, I dilute it by half with water , I have small scraps of cotton materiel that have had hems sewn in them (so I don't get lint) and they stack in a baby wipes box... I just reuse them by putting them in on the bottom of the stack... I add a bit of solution when needed..... Never any stains or problems.... I

    The blue stains should come out with a little Ivory bar soap and a little rubbing together- it used to work with the older fabric softeners. Good luck.
