CHAMOIS GLOVES
Often chamois gloves, after washing, come out a faded, almost dirty, white. They lose the nice yellow that originally characterises them and attracts us to them.
A very good way, if you wish to keep this yellow colour, is to soak slices of orange peel in water overnight, and use this water with soap to wash and rinse the gloves in. Use the soap in the rinsing water, too, as it keeps the gloves soft and pliable whereas if they are rinsed in clear water they often become hard and stiff.
