I need help! I accidentally put a red shirt in the wash with blue jeans,now they are stained.?


Question:How can I remove the dye safely.without ruining the jeans? HELP!! I have not put them in the dryer yet so the stains hopefully have'nt been set in. Any ideas?

Answers:
I have done that too...way too many times. I always use Rit-Dye Color Remover. It can remove the color bleed stains and maintain the original color of the garment. I only use half of a pack per item and do them separately in a bucket. If for some reason the color gets too faded, you can use Rit-Dye to recolor the fabric.


I know here in Australia there is a product called 'Run Away. You just put it in the wash with the clothes that have the run marks. I have used it on clothes where coloured parts have run onto white parts and have had great results. Maybe look in the laundry section of your supermarket. There maybe something similar in your part of the world! Good luck!
i have gotten ink stains out of a quilt... w/ oxyclean, and a bathtub full of water. it sat overnight... maybe for like 24 hours even. but the ink stains faded out. maybe try some vinigar. i dunno... but good luck anyway. yeah, don't dry them yet.
Rewash in cold water or get dye remover and wash with that according to package directions. you can get the dye remover wherever fabric dye is sold.
RIT makes a product that will take the ink out of clothing that has bled into other clothing.
