Two parter, my weight gloves stink and when I wash them they bleed black dye forever, any suggestions?
Question:I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this but when you wash these stupid things they bleed black dye or whatever for an eternity, it stains, I can fill an entire laundryroom sink with black and there's still more. If anyone has any material suggestions, I'm open to those as well. (I do not have the same problem with my cycling gloves). When I say stink, you can smell them from far away.
Answers:
I use Harley Davidson finger gloves for working out and I have not washed them ever and they don't stink.
try cold water only..not warm or hot ..and use a little baking soda and vinegar in the water...and then rinse well then let them soak maybe 20-30 mins in cold rinse water with the vinegar it and soda.. make sure all the soap is rinsed out..you cna also use some frebreeze upholstry and linen freshner when they are dry as wel
and you cna also try putting a dryer sheet in each one after their cleaned an dry..until the next time you use them
do this after every use..not the washing of course but the dryer sheet
Well I'm a bowler and I use a glove and well it stinks..So what I use is Gold Bond or the Gold Bond Foot powder it absorbs the Oder and helps it stay dry.Just don't get the kind that has the tingling affect.I also use clear deodorant.Or try Fabreeze..
add some salt to your warm wash water, and a bit of baking soda. Rinse in cold water with a bit of white vinegar to help neutralize smell.
If you wash them with some Baking Soda the stink will go away. Baking soda is a natural odor eliminator.
