Want to add some bleach to the laundry...

but I don't have any bleach. Is it safe to add a little bit of tilex? :Q This is for whites BTW.

We don't recommend using Tilex® Mold & Mildew Remover on wood or painted surfaces unless you plan to refinish or to repaint them. Avoid contact with aluminum, clothes, fabric, carpet or paper surfaces.

I'd say no. But that's just me.

Im sure something with bleach will be fine. The reason they say avoid contact with clothes or fabrics is because bleach can damage fabrics if undiluted, even regular bleach can eat right through whites if you don't dilute it.. Make absolute sure that you dont directly put it on your clothes. Fill the washer, add it in, and mix well. And dont add too much in. Then put your clothes in.

Yeah that's what I figured. I just added a little bit and it's only my towels and socks anyway. The reason I needed bleach was because I got lazy and washed all my clothes together last week and now the towels look dark.

what else do you have? got a jug of vinegar? a box of baking soda?
