How do you remove the smell of smoke from clothes after a major house fire?
We had a smaller fire that started in the kitchen, but small as it was, it caused a ton of smoke. The fire cleaners recommended Surf POWDER detergent, and it worked like a charm. I also used a cheaper hepa air filter and that seemed to help a lot too. Polyester clothes may not smell clean depending on what kind of smoke it was. I know they told use that anything we had that was plastic may never come clean, and the baby’s toys had to be thrown out because they would remain very toxic. But a lot of the smoke we had was from burning plastic and that’s where the real toxicity comes from. I’d assume that polyester clothes would be the same way. Hope this helps you or anybody else.
