Our wash machine is about 12 years old. We get a sticky lint that is really hard to remove. Can't even remove it with tape. It shows up really bad on dark clothes like sweatshirts. The wife has cleaned the tub over and over. Our softener area is real dirty, so she doesn't use it and just throws the softener in right with the soap at the beginning of the cycle.. I know, softener is for the rinse cycle and I've told her that... I don't know if that is part of our problem or what. I am a toolmaker and sometimes my clothes are pretty dirty. About once a month I wash my dirty aprons from work, but I soak them for a day 1st before washing. 1st thing I'm going to do is take my aprons to a Laundry mat and not do them at home. About the only way to get the lint off is to rewash the article of clothing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
