🧼 3. Why New Towels Get Stained Quickly
Even a month-old towel can develop orange stains. Contributing factors include:
-
Pre-existing iron residue from water during first washes.
-
Residual manufacturing chemicals in new towels reacting with minerals.
-
High temperatures in laundry accelerating oxidation.
-
Detergent choice: Phosphate-based detergents can react with iron, producing stains.
This explains why a brand-new towel can show orange stains faster than older, pre-washed towels.
