Should I be washing both clothes and cleaning rags in the washing machine?
My husband enjoys restoring vintage vehicles. He keeps the garage generally well ventilated, and I am not too worried about the fumes entering our home and causing trouble. However, he will throw the clothes, rags, etc. he used while working into our machine washer. Keep in mind he works a considerable amount around paint and paint thinners. We only have one washer and one dryer in the house, so we wash clothes, sheets, and towels in there, as well separate loads, mind you . What I am wondering is...could washing his rags and my clothes albeit in separate loads be harmful by virtue of the fumes?
