How To Use Bleach

Machines without a bleach dispenser:

• Add your favorite detergent to wash water before adding clothes or bleach.
• Add ½ cup of Clorox® Regular-Bleach₁, concentrated to wash water after your detergent, but before adding clothes. For optimal results, we recommend adding ½ cup of Clorox® Concentrated Regular-Bleach₁,  to water five minutes after the wash cycle has begun.
• Add clothes to wash water after the wash cycle begins.

 High Efficiency Washing Machines and other machines with a Bleach Dispenser:
