when used properly, but using too much or adding it at the wrong time can damage rubber seals or leave lingering vinegar odors.
When Not to Use Vinegar
Despite its benefits, vinegar is not suitable for all fabrics or stains. Avoid using vinegar on delicate fabrics like silk or on stone-based laundry surfaces. Also, never mix vinegar directly with bleach, as this creates toxic chlorine gas.
If you notice persistent fabric damage or discoloration, or if you have allergies or sensitivities, consult a professional cleaner or fabric care specialist before
