White Clothing Dyed Blue

RE: White Clothing Dyed Blue Post By DEE. (Guest Post) (08/23/2005) USING THE RIT COLOR REMOVER IS AN EXCELLENT IDEA. TO KEEP THIS FROM EVER HAPPENING AGAIN, "SHOUT COLOR CATCHER" SHEETS KEEP COLORS FROM MIXING IN YOUR WASHER. AFTER PUTTING YOUR CLOTHES IN THE WASHER, THE SHEET GOES ON TOP TO CATCH ANY COLOR THAT MIGHT FADE. IT'S AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT, EVERYONE NEEDS SOME IN THEIR LAUNDRY ROOM. RE: White Clothing Dyed Blue Post By (Guest Post) (08/22/2005) If the RIT product doesn't work I rely on a product called "Iron Out". It is used to remove iron from all kinds of things, but I've used it often on -white ONLY- laundry that's been stained. I recently had a white top that had unknown blue stains on it following a trip thru the washer, and it came out so pretty and white after being treated w/the Iron Out. You will find it on the cleaner isle of your grocery store. RE: White Clothing Dyed Blue Post by LizCar (43) | (08/22/2005) Contact I've seen the color remover by RIT, but I haven't tried it yet. You could try a strong all-fabric (oxygen) bleach solution, then wash the shirt again, using oxygen bleach in the washer, too. Just dissolve the recommended amount for a full washload in a container big enough to submerse the top. (Use hot water, unless you're worried about shrinkage.) I let it soak all day, if that's what it takes. If it's still a little blue, you can re-soak in oxygen bleach, or follow the directions for the old standby, chlorine bleach. I love oxygen bleach because it is safe, and it won't weaken the fabric, even if you soak it several times. (You can throw in some other dingy clothes to whiten them up, too!) RE: White Clothing Dyed Blue Post By Guest from Delaware (Guest Post) (08/22/2005) There is a product that removes color by RIT, the company which makes dyes. We used it when we got a red garment in the white washload and they came out white again. It might be worth checking out. Good luck!
