Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Now that I am a bachelor I'm learning new things and finding new things I need to know. Most are pretty easy to figure out but I have a puzzle I can't get a grip on. The drum of my clothes drier is while enamel (?) from the factory, but is becoming a very attractive shade of blue. I don't use fabric softeners of any kind except for some things about the size of a base ball that rattle around and are supposed to make the clothes softer without chemicals. The color doesn't seem to be transferring to the clothes and there are no other negative effects that can even think of, but this is making me crazy. (Crazier?) I tried to wash this color off without any success whatsoever. Any suggestions? Maybe I should just ignore it but it's unusual enough that it's hard to ignore. Thanks.

JD Lud Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I think its color from clothes transferring to the drum…blue jean dye or maybe ink pens etc. Unless it’s wearing away the coating but I wouldn’t expect blue under it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 About half of all my clothes are blue. Didn't realize that until just now. Guess I'll just watch it and stop fretting over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Snorter Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 There are machine cleaner packs you can run alone or with old towels. They clean and deodorize the machine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 But just think, Tom... if you still lived in california, you wouldn't have to worry 'bout it much longer ~ no dryers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
