Hi - i was my towels regularly but they look yucky and have grey splodges on. I have cleaned my washing machine but this has made no difference and i wash them on a hot wash ... any ideas????

Napisan is fab!

So is bright sunlight.. but looking out my window that's not about to happen just yet!

They should be done on 60degrees everytime ,but as a one off to knock them back into shape you can do them at 95degrees. I have done that when one met with a horrible accident but i couldnt bare to part with it and it didnt do any harm.

Also use a no nonsense powder like surf rather than liquid soap or washing balls etc.

And get them dry fast too if its possible.

I think that I am going to try dyeing mine. They were a variety of peachy, creamy shades but are now greyish. Years of life left in them though.

I think I will try a brownish colour whilst I still have boys in the house.
