PSA : Tough stain is a bitch

Taking a break from this Siem Reap posts. Yes, more to come. But not much more.

Anyway, last weekend I had rendam a blue baju kurung that needs to be handwashed (actually not need, but I like to hand wash any baju kurung that have beads) with a pink silk blouse. Leaving it for a few hours and I noticed that the baju kurung now had tompok-tompok pink, and few other clothes too (undies!). I totally hate it when that happened.

Grrrrr. I forgot that some of these silk blouse color totally run. And it messes the nice baju kurung which also I pinjam from my sis. Hikhik. And those stain are a bitch to wash out. After separating the clothes, googling, putting some vinegar and baking powder for good measure. Went to Giant and bought Oxy-Plus Stain Remover. Pour a bit into the soaked clothes and leave for a few hours, and it is gone! Yeay! The same for my undies too! Yeay! Though it is advisable you used hot water to wash out tough stains. So I pre-soaked my clothes in hot water. Do that and it is fine.

Haaa! I will later test it on my other poor clothes that had suffered the same fate.

Eh... I am reviewing household product dah ke skang? It had come to this?

Whatever. I am too sexcited that it worked cause I hate it when I have stain on my clothes ok. So I am telling you guys this piece of advice too. And now, I am going out for lunch.

what you should have in your blog is a paid link to amazon/ebay/lelong hawking the said product. then you could monetize your experiences.

I assume you said pink dots. Which are from the pink silk blouse that totally run.

Probably find a black clothes yang colour die turun and dye your white shirt black plak.
