Heinz® In Your Laundry


Put hard-working Heinz® Vinegar through the complete cycle in your laundry room and see how useful it can be for freshening your clothes, killing odors, and pampering baby's clothing and bed linen.



Ease The Stain:
Don’t cry over spilled cola or wine. Within 24 hours, apply undiluted Heinz® White Vinegar directly to the stain (on washable 100% cotton, polyester, and permanent press cotton fabrics). Wash and dry as directed according to the manufacturer's care tag instructions.

Up In Smoke:
The party's over, but a smoky odor permeates your clothes. Did you know Heinz® Vinegar can absorb all the bad smells? Pour two cups of Heinz® Vinegar in a bathtub of hot water, hang your clothes above the tub, and let the odors disappear.

Colorful Personality:
Because some bright colors in fabrics tend to run, immerse them in full-strength Heinz® White Vinegar before washing. Your garments will remain true to their colors. Follow manufacturer's cleaning instructions and test first on an inconspicuous spot.

Easier Ironing:
Starch buildup and corrosion…two problems that are easy to iron out with Heinz® White Vinegar. If starch buildup is making your iron stick, simply wipe it clean with a moist cloth soaked in full-strength Heinz® White Vinegar (making sure iron is unplugged and cold, of course). To keep your iron free of corrosion and calcium deposits, occasionally fill the water reservoir with full-strength Heinz® White Vinegar and steam-iron a soft utility rag. Repeat the process using water, then thoroughly rinse out the inside of your iron.

A New Wrinkle:
To help get rid of unsightly hem marks that remain after altering hemlines, gently rub them away with a Heinz® White Vinegar-dampened cloth. Then run a steam iron across the crease or telltale line. No more lines.

All Washed Up:
Heinz® didn't forget the baby in the house. All-natural Heinz® White Vinegar is the perfect solution for breaking down the uric acid and irritating soap residue in all your baby's clothing, blankets, and sheets. To keep them soft and clean, add one cup of Heinz® White Vinegar to each wash load during the rinse cycle. And for the rest of the family's clothes, the same formula will do the trick.

Timely Touchups:
To help remove light scorch marks on fabrics, rub lightly with undiluted Heinz® White Vinegar. Then wipe with a clean cloth. Using the same technique, you'll get great results on underarm deodorant and stains left by anti-perspirants.

Come Full Cycle:
For an all-around-and-around way to freshen up your washing machine, once a month pour in a cup of Heinz® White Vinegar. Run through a normal cycle, without clothes, and unwanted soap residue will vanish.
