The oldest remedies work best. Add chlorine bleach to the wash water and agitate before adding the clothing. Keeps everything looking pristine.

There's a product called Bluing. If you look at a color wheel you will see violet right across from the yellow. that means those two colors cancel each other out.
How to use. Be careful not to use too much of the product, or your whites will be blue.
If you have just one item to be de-yellowed, do that job in the kitchen sink or bathroom sink. You may wash the clothing in the washer or do all in the sink. You add the bluing when you rinse the garment.
The label will tell you more on the amount to use. Works well on deposits left behind from bleach.

Boost Strength of liquid detergent and Bleach
Add 1/2 cup baking Soda to your usual amount of liquid laundry detergent really will give you "whiter Whites" and brighter colors. The baking soda also softens the water, so you can actually use less detergent.Adding 1/2 cup baking soda in top-loading machines(1/4 cup for front loaders) also increases the potency of bleach, so you need only half the usual amount of bleach

Try Borax and/or washing soda before you go for the chlorine bleach, which can discolor polyester and anything stretchy. You can get both borax and washing soda at the supermarket in the laundry section.
