Pure Sugar Stains Some Materials; Specialists Say Have you ever received 3 garment back from the cleaner with a stain on it? You're certain it was not there when you sent it for cleaning, and you wonder, "I9 my spots out cleaner of in business clothes to or my spots on them?" This has happened to many of us. Stains that are invisible -when we send our clothes to be cleaned, and then appear as brown spots after cleaning, have cost cleaners countless I claims and loss or customers confidence and good will. This has been a baffling problem for many years, and the National Institute of Cleaning and Dyeing has spent much time and money studying it from a scientific angle. Here is what they found. Common substances such BS juices from oranges, grapefruit, lemons, apples, peaches and watermelons; artificially sweetened substances such as soft drinks, ginger ale, Tom Collin's mix: and beer, ale and cocktails, all contain sugar.

But these sugars are a special kind, known to research chemists as "reducing sugars." One type is called "glucose" or grape sugar. It's the main sweetening agent of corn syrup or Karo. Another, "fructose," also called fruit SHgar, is the main sweetening agent in honey. Still another, "maltose," is found in beer. These sugars are not like the sugar you use in your coffee.

Many substances that contain reducing sugars cause stains when they contact your clothing cannot see them- but they turn brown from the heat necessary to clean and finish garments. They may even turn brown when your clothes hang in your closet for a long period of time. What happens? The sugar carmelizes; just as sugar carmelizes when you make your favorite peanut brittle or carmel candy. On wool or silk, such brown stains, cannot be moved unless fabrics are white so that they can be bleached. MT.
