Some people do add fabric sheets to washing machines to soak up running colors. This does not always work effectively.

Why does dark laundry come out with white dust or lint on it?

Are you using washing powders or liquid? If you are using powder, then this is soap residue from incompletely dissolved powder. Put the washing powder in FIRST because it will have more time to dissolve before being spread throughout the wash. Also use less powder. Most manufacturers provide a graduated measuring scoop to gauge the size of the load. Most likely you are using too much powder for the size of your load. A rule of thumb when you are washing darks is to use about 1/4 less soap than you think you need. A little practice will ensure that the clothes will be clean but spot free using less washing powders. Other causes might be that you are crowding your machine. Put your wash in dry before you turn on the machine. The clothes should fit in the machine without pushing them down or packing. After all, the water must circulate throughout the clothes freely much like washing yourself. When there is too much in the machine, the clothes don't turn with the agitator and the washing materials don't dissolve correctly because the clothes are pressing on the soap, sticking to the clothes. When was the last time you wiped out your machine? Like all surfaces anywhere, the drum of your machine needs to be cleaned periodically. Soap residue will cling to the bottom and the sides of your machine just like your kitchen sink. A wipe about once a month will take care of the problem. If you use a liquid fabric softener in your machine, skip adding it when you wash darks. Fabric softener is another culprit. You have added enough softener when you washed the whites and brights so there is sufficient softener clinging to the sides of the machine when you do darks. Finally, check pockets carefully when you wash. Turn out deep pockets so that the lint in them can fall out in the wash cycle. This will prevent accidental washing of tissues and receipts which will leave lint on your clothes.
