Why Is My Fabric Softener Staining My Clothes?
Fabric softener can stain clothes because it contains ingredients like dyes, oils, and chemicals that may not completely dissolve or disperse in water. When fabric softener is added to the wash cycle, these substances can adhere to clothes, leaving behind dark spots and stains. Additionally, if fabric softener is added directly to clothes instead of to the designated dispenser, it can also cause staining. Finally, using too much fabric softener or not diluting it properly can also result in staining.
