Here are some effective methods to whiten clothes that have turned yellow or gray:
Natural Solutions (for lightly yellowed or grayed clothes):
Sunlight: The sun is a natural bleaching agent. Hang your clothes outside on a sunny day (ideally with good air circulation) for several hours. Bring them back in before dusk to prevent sun damage.
Lemon Juice: The citric acid in lemon juice can help whiten fabrics. Mix equal parts lemon juice and water in a spray bottle. Spritz the discolored areas of your clothes and let them sit in the sun for an hour. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and wash as usual.
Baking Soda: Baking soda is a mild bleaching agent that can also help remove odors. Create a paste of baking soda and water and apply it directly to the discolored areas. Let it sit for 30 minutes to an hour, then wash your clothes as usual.
Vinegar: White vinegar is a natural deodorizer and can also help brighten fabrics. Add 1 cup of white vinegar to your washing machine along with your detergent and wash on a warm or hot water cycle (depending on care instructions).
