No do not ue the 59 minute cycle its not long enough and may not reach the actual temperature. The water use on that cycle is probably the most compared to an proper 60'c cycle anyway. Yes leave the jeans in the machine for the 40 wash then they can be hung up to dry after.

try about 150ml - 200ml of thick bleach to 5 litres of hot water! Wear rubber gloves and use a wooden spoon to stir very gently. Soak for about 40 minutes. If the dyes not removed try another bucket of fresh bleach water and soak again for 40 minutes. Add the bleach to the water after the tap...

I assume they are cotton or denim????? OK Blue on yellow will make green. You first want to strip the dye out using a dye stripper as per instructions tell you on the packet. Failing that a soak in a strongish solution of THICK household bleach aka Domestos etc (the soap in it helps)...

What is it your dyeing exactly and which Dye do you intend to use? Only when we know the answers can we comment.

Robert sorry to be a pest - im not sure if anyone has mentioned this elsewhere in a thread but I noticed that the Forum tabs that run across the top of forums are not in the same order as when they run vertically on the main page. Just a slight thing as when quickly flicking thru forums I...

One has to remember that even back then the Turbopower 1 without tools was fast approaching being a BOL cleaner if it wasnt already seeing as other manufacturers had more advanced cleaners appealing to the average housewife. The turbo was quite a good little money spinner for hoover and having...

Boost The boost feature is actually a Placebo enabling Hoover to have made extra models for the line up. First and second generation TP's had 400w/410w/450w motors and ran on a 2 way switch with resistors to provide the 2 speeds. Around 400w on 2 and around 250w on 1. Third generation and...

What gave you that impression?

Not forgetting the TM has a wider sweeping path for bigger houses and larger areas, The height of the cleaner is also very differential and a massive plus to those over 5'5. Its size of head means that while using the same fan as the TP and a similar motor wattage if not a bit higher means that...

Dyson Quiet? The DC01 is probably one of Dysons quietest cleaners however its not a candidate for the question asked. As for quiet are we talking most quiet on full power or can we include quiet on lowest power? If I need to vac really late at night I tend to go for the Miele S5210 on its...

fittings and fixtures After you said in a previous thread Dyson were coming to remerchandise your new premises Im quite shocked at how basic those Dyson POS fittings and fixtures are, they obviously dont spend the cash that they spend fitting out out stores here with demo stands and models...

Chris, between yourself, and Paul 'n' Myself (tuna 'n' sweetcorn not tuna AND sweetcorn LOL) we must have examples of each style of Hitachi upright???? CV50 CV60- many colours of these sold until the CV thingies with tools came in? Now just missing the sculptured curvy version aint we?

Benny, Taken from the 1979 AW Kays catalogue this is the darker brown version. The lighter brown version in the 1980/1 catalogues is the shade you see in my picture of the 2nd version. The one I have in the garage awaiting restoration is indeed this 1979 colour.... instead of being a...
