Can I use clorox for colors on jeans that have been stained somehow in the washer to remove the stain?


Question:P.S. serious answers only, not one sentence answers, for example, yes you can. Also the jeans have this dark mark strung against them.

Answers:
Yes you can, but may I recommend a much better and safer product that will cost you less, try White Vinegar on those stains, here is the tips

Soften fabrics, kill bacteria, eliminate static, and more

There are so many benefits to be reaped by adding 1 cup white vinegar to your washer's rinse cycle that it's surprising that you don't find it prominently mentioned inside the owner's manual of every washing machine sold. Here are the main ones:
A single cup of vinegar will kill off any bacteria that may be present in your wash load, especially if it includes cloth diapers and the like.


A cup of vinegar will keep your clothes coming out of the wash soft and smelling fresh -- so you can kiss your fabric-softening liquids and sheets good-bye (unless, of course, you happen to like your clothes smelling of heavy perfumes).


A cup of vinegar will brighten small loads of white clothes.


Added to the last rinse, a cup of vinegar will keep your clothes lint- and static-free.


Adding a cupful of vinegar to the last rinse will set the color of your newly dyed fabrics.

Brighten your loads

Why waste money on that costly all-color bleach when you can get the same results using vinegar? Just add 1/2 cup white vinegar to your machine's wash cycle to brighten up the colors in each load.

Pat away water-soluble stains

You can lift out many water-soluble stains -- including beer, orange and other fruit juices, black coffee or tea, and vomit --from your cotton-blend clothing by patting the spot with a cloth or towel moistened with undiluted white vinegar just before placing it in the wash. For large stains, you may want to soak the garment overnight in a solution of 3 parts vinegar to 1 part cold water before washing.

Unset old stains

Older, set-in stains will often come out in the wash after being pretreated with a solution of 3 tablespoons white vinegar and 2 tablespoons liquid detergent in 1 quart (1 liter) warm water. Rub the solution into the stain, then blot it dry before washing.

Sponge out serious stains

Cola, hair dye, ketchup, and wine stains on washable cotton blends should be treated as soon as possible (that is, within 24 hours). Sponge the area with undiluted vinegar and launder immediately afterward. For severe stains, add 1-2 cups vinegar to the wash cycle as well.


There is just so much Vinegar can do for so less, you can even use it as a all purpose cleaner/degreaser it removes stains, residue left by cleaners and detergents it disinfects and deodorizes and is touted as being the best disinfectant in the world, you simply can not go wrong when using vinegar Good Luck !


You could use it. It will take out the stain but also take out all the color. You will have a huge white spot or spots where the bleach touches. So I don't think you would really want to. Serious enough answer?
You shouldn't use clorox in color jeans unless is clorox for colors. If you don't use clorox for colors your jeans will have white spots.
I would recommend using the detergent directions for cleaning off spots. For instance, on the back of the Tide bottle it will give you directions for applying a small amount of liquid detergent directly to the spot. Then, you wait a while for the detergent to sink in and then wash it like normal. It should get rid of it. However, if it doesn't work, you might have to go to the store and get some OxyClean and work on that one.
