Way back when they used to advertise blueing on TV. Haven’t seen any such ads in decades.

Do they even sell the stuff anymore?

Dunno. Never used the stuff.

Bluing is very much available, used to darken denim stuff if not to whiten. Whitening is mostly done by bleach these days.

White cotton and linen yellow over time. Small amounts of blue dye counteract the yellowing.
