I just washed my brand new pink and cream maternity outfit with some blue pants and the blue bled all over the outfit. Anyone know a way to get the blue out?

There is a spray you can get at the dollar store called Awesome. It can get out anything. First I would try Shout. (04/19/2005)

Try Oxi-Clean. It should remove the color that ran into the white. (04/20/2005)

I removed black dye marks from my Granddaughter's white dress with black spots in the following manner:
Thoroughly spray stained area with a good quality pre-wash spray (I used sard). Then use a stain removing soap (Sard wonder soap) and wash with your other whites.
Any laundry soap will probably have the same result, but I used what I had on hand & it worked well. (01/15/2009)

Do not dry the stained outfit. Run it back through the washer in cold water to keep from setting the blue stains. (01/15/2009)

Iron Water Stains Out of White Clothing
I washed my daughter's new white sweatshirt in our water that I didn't realize was loaded with iron. I have it hanging to dry, but the brown iron spots are VERY noticeable. Any suggestions on how to remove these iron spots? (01/09/2009)

Fix an enamel sink or pan full of hot water. Add to this 1 cup of powdered dishing water detergent and 1 cup bleach. Swish this around and put the article in solution. Let sit about an hour. You would think that this would hurt the colored articles so far it has not damaged any of mine and I have been using this solution for over 30 years. Glitz (01/05/2009)

I, by mistake, washed red garment with light colored clothes and all of them got the pink stains and now they are dry already. What should I do to remove these stains? I used bleach and Vanish also but nothing is helping me. I live in Hong Kong and tried to find RIT and Oxy clean Products but I was not able to find them here. Kindly suggest me some other alternatives to get my bright clean clothes back. (07/16/2008)

RE: Color Stains out of Other Colored Clothes
I have found Oxy Clean does a pretty good job, especially when combined with a stain remover directly on the spot. Apply stain remover, and then soak garment in Oxy Clean for quite a few hours and quite often, if not most of the time, you will have success...hopefully. :-) (09/11/2008)

RE: White stains on color clothes
I have white stains on my color clothes after washing and they won't go away. I heard diluting vodka in water/ solution helps, does anyone know if this is true or have any suggestions? I've already switched to liquid soap. (11/15/2008)

Try using OxyClean or a similar non chlorine product. This may help. Otherwise, just keep washing and hope the other color fades. You could also consider dying the garment.

Hi,
There is a product on the market called "Rit Color Remover". Grocery stores and Wal-Marts carry it in the cleaning aisle. Priced at just under $2, you add it to the hottest water that is safe for the garment, agitate to dissolve it, then add the article of clothing and let it soak for a few minutes. Check every few minutes for color change (you don't want to bleach all the color out, just the color that doesn't belong). When the abnormal color is gone, spin out and wash as usual. You can also do this in a pan of water if you don't want to use the washing machine. You follow the same steps to remove all color prior to dying a garment. I have used this product several times in the past with great success. (06/28/2003)

From Removing Stains from Clothing and Fabrics at (weblink)http://www.toledoaasr.com/Kitchen/stains.htm(/weblink):
Dye - If dye transfers from a non-colorfast item during washing, immediately bleach discolored items. Repeat as necessary before drying. On whites use color remover.
NOTE: Do not use color remover in washer, or around washer and dryer. It will damage the finish of them
The Tide Fabric Care network may give you a solution. I don't know enough about your stain and/or affected clothing to carry out the process. Check with the Stain Detective at (weblink)http://www.clothesline.com/staindetective/selectStain.jhtml# (/weblink).
I believe there is a new product out for just this purpose which you put in the dryer to absorb the transferred dye; however, I can't remember the name of it. Checking the laundry aisle where you shop may uncover it.
Good luck!

RE: Color Stains out of Other Colored Clothes
If the red clothing is new, make sure you don't wash it or dry it with anything light colored no matter what temperature you use (otherwise you get some nice pink clothes, towels, etc.) The temperature isn't as important as the other clothing with it. Until you are sure all of the red dye is out, wash it with other reds or darker clothing. (01/09/2005)
