Tide-To-Go Pen Left Yellow Stain On Clothing

How do I remove a yellow stain left by Tide-To-Go? It has been washed and dried once or twice since the actual stain. My sweater is cotton and spandex, and says "do not bleach". But somewhere I have read that "do not bleach" can mean different things such as yellowing, whitening, or making the fabric become more coarse.

What is another product that is easy to come by (in Ontario, Canada) that will work fast and easy to remove the yellow stain? Please help. Thanks.

I think that your best bet (if Tide can't tell you) is to get RIT color remover-about $3 in discount stores. I do my white shirts every so often (my red hair color makes a ring around the collar). It's not whitener, it is color remover. Can't hurt, right?

I would call the people at Tide. Usually there's a 1-800 number on the product. I'd be willing to bet they can help you. Ask in a nice way. Good luck.

I have a white shirt that is made of Viscose, which is a fabric I am unfamiliar with. About a week ago, I spilled ketchup on it. It was really depressing.
