– Why is all lint blueish grey?

2.78K views

I have a pretty colorful wardrobe, and yet all the lint that comes out of the dryer is the same blue-grey color. In fact, it’s the same color as all lint from any dryer I’ve seen. Anyone know why? Something about the detergent or something?

For emitted light, all colors combined make white. For printers all colors combined make grey. Lint is like printers they’re substractive colors.
