Why do rust stains appear when clothes are washed in washing machine?

The machine is very old (it's a Maytag) and a few of the little holes in the tub are a little rusty. But yesterday a white shirt came out with lots of rust splotches all in one spot. Why does that happen?





What can I do to stop it? I know how to get rust out of clothes (use Oxyclean), but I want to prevent them getting rusty in the first place.Why do rust stains appear when clothes are washed in washing machine?
Get some appliance touch up paint at the hardware store. Touch up those little rust spots on the drum of the washer with it. It happens when you launder garments with metal buttons, rivets and zippers, like jeans. They agitate and spin against the drum causing the paint to chip off. A little touch up paint and the problem is solved.Why do rust stains appear when clothes are washed in washing machine?
you haf to buy another washing machine or waste your money on oxy clean
you have to get the rust out of the machine itself or its just going to keep getting on ur clothes


maybe run it through a cycle with oxy cleen or bleach or some sort of rust remover, with out any clothes in it -


or you may have to do it by hand





the most causes of a washing machine getting rust in it , is leaving wet clothes in it over night or longer,





and it may just be eaiser to buy a new machine all together
Rust and grime stains appear when clothes stay in the washing mashine too long or if its old. The rust or mildew rubs against it. You might want to get a new washing machine.
Mine did that, I had to finally break down and buy a new one. Now I'm rust free, my water bill and washing powder bill is cheaper and my clothes smell better.
