Washers - Tub Stains

Many new GE Appliance washers have a glossy white non-staining surface. For the rare occasions when dye, calcium, or iron build-up would need to be removed, we have several recommendations for cleaning.

 

Fill the tub to the highest water level with hot water.

  • Pour 1 cup of chlorine bleach directly into the tub.
  • Run through a regular cycle.

 

Use the citric acid treatment.

  • Fill the tub to the highest water level with hot water.
  • Pour 4 oz. of citric acid into the tub (available at most grocery stores) or 1 cup of white vinegar.
  • Run through a regular cycle.
  • Run another regular cycle with detergent to clean out any residual citric acid.
 

Use a household cleaner to remove. Fantastic with lemon or similar product and a plastic scrubber may suffice.
