    Taco man! Work smarter not harder! You had a basket in the truck! Dump it in the van and then take back to the cans to fill! Would have saved you at least half the trips! I enjoy watching your shows and hearing about the metals/scrap and your philosophy of life!

    I am GLAD you did not edit out the trash can scene. Thats exactly what folks want to see. You digging for treasure. Just think of all the treasures you have left behind because you have walked away from trash bags. PLEASE show more of that ! I give you credit for finally getting in to those trash bags Taco. I am sure Paper Moose would agree.

    If you take a bar of ivory soap and grate it all up. Put it in very warm water and then soak those t-shirts in it, it should take away the yellowing and horrific pit stains! Great finds! I’m so happy for you, you deserve it!

    Tim, you can take all the yellowed textiles, put them in a big bucket or bathtub with warm water and the powdered Oxiclean, leave them for about a half hour, come back and stir them about every 10 minutes. When the bubbles stop the Oxi is done working. Wring them out and wash in the machine like usual. It will remove most of the old dirt, and usually the bad smell. I use this method for wintage quilts all the time. Just don't leave them in the Oxi and forget them. I did that once over night and the fabric deteriorated.

    I used to have a consignment shop for children's clothes. For the white shirts, used equal parts of bleach and dishwasher detergent (powder ). Magic!

    Oh my gosh, those clothes!!! I would have upended those cans into my car and sorted the lot at home. Some of the damaged clothes would be good for rags, our local mechanics are always chasing rags. Others could have been donated. Soak the clothes in your equivalent of our Napisan overnight. Will brighten most of the not so damaged items. If you can, hang theminthe sunshine and air them out. That Harley tshirt was awesome. Great score kiddo. I'm sure Renae will love going through that box of ephemera with you.

    GBH was a late 1970's punk rock band. They are still around and still making music now but the shirt looks old. That shirt could be worth something. And punk rockers do not mind stains and holes. 😆

    Just love some of those old homes you find on your routes, especially with nice big porches. Must not be a lot of homeless people around where you are picking, they would be all over the clothes. Someone on my street left a big box of clothes and every day there were less and less items. so many people camping in their cars, if they are lucky enough to have cars. Tarp tent in the wooded areas. I don't give them money thogh, know for a fact they use for drugs. If they have dogs I leave dog food. I am glad you got some clothing to be able to re sell.

    Fill your bathtub with hot water, put the t-shirts in and use Dawn dishwashing detergent, some baking soda, maybe some Oxy powder. Let them soak for several hours. Then wring them out and put in the washer. Look them over before you put them in the dryer. Some may need some extra work.

    • @luanamcdonald1243
      @luanamcdonald1243 2 роки тому +2

      I think 90% of it wil come out with using baking soda added to the wash and rinse with white vinegar no chemicals works great. Soak first may need 2 cycles they are stains from being stored not thoroughly clean when stored. Mens sweat does that esp. with cotton items. I do this method with my reg. wash so everything is clean, no stains and remains bright looking new.
      Have a great day.

    You should find an old wringer washer. Throw in a huge load , let it set a bit and then wring them out. A lot cheaper than using a regular washer and a clothes line is free. I still have my grandmothers wringer washer and it looks brand new. Still works like a charm. I have a clothes line holder on the garage wall. I pull it by the handle and walk it 24 feet and hook it up on the other side. I have 4 clotheslines to hang stuff up. In the summer, stuff dries quickly and smells great.

    Most clothing and linens can soak in a powdered Oxi Clean solution without harming color. If you have a top loading washer, you can fill tub, pull dial to stop washing cycle, and let items soak (hour or two or overnight. When ready, restart cycle. One consideration, if material is fragile use a bucket as described below. If you have a front loader, you can do it in a bucket in bathtub. Doing it in bathtub makes it easier to dump the water and rinse. You can repeat the soaking process multiple times. I use it on old quilts, linens, and clothing with a ratio of one gallon to 1/3 cup Oxy Clean powder. If the water is dirty, it means there is still dirt in the item, so soak again. Some stains are difficult to remove, but this process with remove the age discoloration for sure and possibly all the stains.
