Cheap "Persol" - a panacea for old stains

Whitening laundry and restoring it to its original freshness is not an easy task. The Persol oxygen bleach method turned my household around - thanks to my best friend for the advice! I studied in detail the composition and properties of this product, and realized that “Persol” is added to many expensive washing powders. Why pay more? Persol can be found among budget products in hardware stores.

Compound

What does the budget fund contain:

• sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate;
• sodium carbonate.

These compounds break down during washing, releasing oxygen, and this element is responsible for removing stains. The other ingredients - soda and water - do not cause any harm to the environment.

It is percarbonate that is found in most oxygen bleach powders.

Advantages and disadvantages

Oxygen bleach is a good alternative to chlorine bleach. Such powders and gels can be used on both white and colored fabrics without compromising brightness. The gentle composition of “Persoli” will not damage synthetic or thin cotton fibers. Among the contraindications, only delicate silk is listed. Another plus is that both machine and hand wash are possible.

Persol successfully copes with such pollutants as tea, coffee, fruit and berry juices, and wine. Even old stains can be removed. Thanks to the stain remover, yellowness and grayness will no longer spoil your mood.

Additional positive actions include:

• water softening;
• scale prevention;
• disinfection of linen.

The cost of the product is within 50 rubles per pack of 200. This is another unconditional advantage.

Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting a slightly harsh fragrance with a citrus aroma. Also, the effect of bleach is observed only at high temperatures, but more on that in the next section.

Instructions for use

Here are the instructions for use that come on the packaging, with my notes:

1. For 2 kg of dry laundry, 30 g of product is enough. This is a very economical expense.
2. You can bleach things at the same time as washing them in the machine (without soaking in a basin or “additional washing”). In this case, any basic powder or gel is suitable, both prestigious with granules and cheap without additives. Just add 1 tbsp to it. l. "Persoli."
3. Washing is carried out at a temperature of 60-90 degrees.

Percarbonate begins to work actively at temperatures from +50. For colored fabrics, it is better to use water no warmer than 60 degrees. Boiling with “Persol” - for durable cotton linen, towels, bedding.

Application of “Persoli” for hand washing:

1. To prevent the skin of your hands from becoming irritated or itchy, use rubber gloves.
2. Pre-wash your laundry on a suitable cycle or by hand.
3. Dissolve the powder in a bowl of water. Water temperature - from +40 for wool and delicate fabrics to +70-90 for cotton.
4. Soak items for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Old stains can be left overnight.

Boiling:

1. Dilute the powder in a basin - 50 g for cotton, viscose and linen or 70 g for synthetics and mixed fabrics. The quantity is indicated for 10 liters of water.
2. Place the clothes in the water.
3. Bring to a boil and turn off the heat.
4. Keep things in the basin for 30 minutes, stirring.

This is an old Soviet method for giving linen pristine cleanliness. Today, “Persoli” has been forgotten, as the market offers many colorful packages with promises of instant effect. The result of budget boiling with “Persol” is simply super!

Tip! Persalt dissolves easily, so it is better to store the product in a dry environment and tightly closed.

Security measures:

• The manufacturer warns: if Persol clogs your eyes, you need to urgently rinse them with water and call a doctor.
• Bleach should be thoroughly washed off the skin with clean water, without soap.
• Do not mix the product with acids and organic solvents, otherwise you will get a violent reaction.
• It is forbidden to use dishes with rust, or to place the powder near hot objects or expose it to sunlight.
• And one more thing: since bleach generates dust, try not to inhale it when using it, so as not to irritate your mucous membranes.

In the process of studying, I came across a lot of positive reviews about this cheap product. The most important thing is to use it wisely: according to the rules and observing safety measures. enjoy «Persol" is not difficult. This is a universal product for different fabrics, working at all stages of washing. Don’t pass by cheap powder; in its case, a low price is not an indicator of poor quality.
