4. Rinse if the stain is gone
5. If the stain is not completely gone - wash in the usual way with Lemon wash without rinsing off the soap first.

White or unbleached cotton can withstand 60-95 degrees.
Dyed cotton should usually be washed at 40 degrees, but always check the washing instructions on the garment.
Sort the laundry so that you wash white only with white. White clothes can quickly turn gray if you wash them with other colors. It can also be good to distinguish between light and dark colors to avoid discolouration and keep your garments looking good for a long time. Wash anything made of cotton with lemon wash, which is made from natural oils and works as both an effective detergent and fabric softener. Lemon wash is especially long-lasting in use - only one tablespoon (15 ml) for machine washing. Any stains are pre-treated with lemon soap.
Garments that are exposed to bacteria should be washed at a minimum of 60 degrees to kill the bacteria. This applies, for example, to towels, bed linen and underwear.
Jeans are washed like colored cotton and should always be washed inside out.
