Just received dark blue plush towels from here:

www.stocktowelsnow.com



I`ve tried hand washing one at least 10 times with dawn and tide free. I keep getting bleeding anytime those soaps are introduced to the water. Tried soaking in vinegar and it did not help. I`ve been air drying since I don`t have washing machine or dryer. Good news is ONR doesn`t make it bleed haha



Would putting them in a dryer help at all? Any other ideas? I feel like I`m cutting down on the life of the towels with all this washing I`m doing.

Here`s my suggestion:

Don`t buy towels in that color from that source. There are other towel suppliers.

Have you bought towels from them before??

Is this the first time you`ve bought this particular color towel to use ??

(I assume you are washing them before you are using them.)



My suggestion, return them. If they are a reputable seller, they should replace them.

Sign of trouble, don`t use them.
