We all have so many questions when it comes to fabric care. How do you get your whites whiter, avoid shrinkage, and get out those really tough stains? What is the ideal temperature to wash your clothes? Do you actually need to separate whites from colors? What is the best way to pre-treat clothes? Should you use any setting besides ‘normal?’ Also, do those missing socks really go missing in the machine, or is that a figment of our imagination?

We addressed dozens of your questions in this ‘news you can use’ conversation with Procter & Gamble Senior Scientist Sammy Wang. She helps lead teams creating products like Downy and Tide. 

Wang recently visited Mosheh’s home as he got a new washer and dryer in his new apartment. In this sponsored conversation, we take your questions about the laundry process. #downypartner
