I did the Tide/Vinegar/Water solution on a stain of red food coloring on a friend's prom dress I was borrowing. I soaked it and came back 20 minutes later...it was GONE! No rubbing necessary. Thank you!

I used diluted bleach in warm water on red colouring on a white cotton top and it has worked although it was only a few drops.

I used this method on my son's car seat, the seat cushions in my car and his clothing and the vinegar works great on green and blue food coloring, not so great on purple.

I just tried Erin's method of warm water, vinegar and liquid Tide to remove green food coloring from a cotton blouse. It worked! I am a preschool (Head Start) teacher too and appreciate you posting this helpful hint.

I am a preschool teacher and I was dying macaroni for a project we will be doing, and splashed neon purple and pink all over my cream colored jacket! I panicked but managed to get it out by soaking it in warm water with liquid tide and white distilled vinegar. Let it soak and then after 20 min, pour some more vinegar directly on it, and rub it with either your fingers or a scrub brush. Amazingly enough, it all came out!!

I got yellow-orange food coloring on part of my daughter's cheerleading outfit. Mostly on the white part. I rubbed it out of the dark blue part and it smeared into the white part. If I wash it will the yellow smear to the entire outfit. What about vinegar. Is it better to blot it out if that is possible? There really isn't a part of the outfit that is hidden except on the inside. I though about trying vinegar but was scared it would bleed through to the other side. Thank you!

Request: Removing Red Food Coloring?

Archived on 11/08/2006

How do I remove red food color from a pair of new blue jeans?

Answers:

RE: Removing Red Food Coloring?

I used SPOT SHOT Carpet Stain Remover on some red food coloring stains on a denim skirt. I placed one paper towel inside the skirt, sprayed it on and blotted it off the fabric with another paper towel. It came right out! Then I washed and dried it as usual. I tested the product on a hidden part of the skirt first to make sure it wouldn't take the color out. The stain was more than 24 hours old. (05/14/2006)
