Kaitlin, who posts below @kaitlingonzoshared how she uses the sun to “whiten” her clothes and make them look like new in just a few hours.

In a clip that racked up 21,000 likes, she held up a jumpsuit that had a yellow stain on the collar.

The mom shared: “Pregnant with my second daughter and didn’t want to give up this adorable Dino outfit.

“I’m glad I learned about solar whitening.

“Thank you, Mr. Sun.”

All she did was set it aside on the garden path in direct sunlight.

Four hours later, she returned to her clothes and discovered that the unsightly stain had dramatically disappeared.

Kaitlin gushed: “I’m so happy to see that solar brightening really works!!! Yay!!!”

Many people were very impressed with the hack, especially since she didn’t need any expensive products to get the whitening effect.

One person wrote: “This is so cool!! I wish I had known this before. Maybe I could save some of my husband’s stained shirts.

Another added: “I love this app, it’s always a new trick every day.”

And a third commented: “I had a very yellow, previously white, newborn seat that looked almost completely new!”

Alex Econs, laundry cleaning expert and founder of Icon printingis also a fan of the hack and shared some other advice.

“To make your white clothes shine again, try a natural vinegar-based solution. This method is not only gentle on clothes, but because vinegar is less toxic than bleach, it is also more environmentally friendly,” he said.

“To make the solution at home, mix half a teaspoon of dish soap with a quarter cup of white vinegar and a quarter cup of cold water.

“Apply directly to the stains, brushing lightly on the affected areas and then wash the t-shirt immediately.

“When it comes to drying your white clothes, if climate licenses, always do it outdoors. The sun will naturally bleach out any discoloration, lightening any stains and keeping the shirt whiter for longer.”

He also shared tips on clothing that features green grass stains.

“Grass is rich in chlorophyll, which can easily transfer to the fabrics of our clothes, leaving bright, intimidating-looking green marks.

“Isopropyl alcohol acts as a solvent for this pigmentation and will remove the worst of the stain.

“Using a clean sponge, blot the stain before letting a small amount of alcohol sit for five to 10 minutes. Then, rinse the fabric with cold water and repeat the process if necessary.”
