Lessons learned: --Colors get cold water, whites get hot water. ----If it's a small load of old clothes (ie: not likely to bleed), it's fine to mix them as long as the water is cold. --If it's new and colored, wash it only with like-colored items for the first few washes to lessen impact of bleeding (shirts, especially reds, which feel kind of stiff/plastic-y WILL bleed even if you wash them in a fricking iceberg, Tommy Hilfiger stuff was horrible about this back in the day). --For colored items you want to retain their colors, tumble dry for only 20-30 minutes (ie: just long enough to get many of the wrinkles out) then hang dry (the dryer is where a lot of fading happens). --If whites start getting a little less vibrant, bleach is your friend. --Pique shirts hold color far better than knits.
I don’t know you, but I am certain you are more successful than I am.
