It works on vintage linens, which I collect. Vintage linens yellow with the use of bleach. Good Luck! RE: White Tuxedo Shirts Turned Yellow Post By P.

RE: White Tuxedo Shirts Turned Yellow Post by brenda thompson (46) | (02/21/2006) Contact I have read two posts in my groups lately referring to this matter. One person suggested soaking over night in the hottest water possible with dishwasher detergent added to the water. Another swore by greased lightning to remove yellow stains from white shirts. I haven't tried either yet, but thought it was worth writing down for my future refrences. brenda-ohio RE: White Tuxedo Shirts Turned Yellow Post By exhaustedmomof2 (Guest Post) (02/20/2006) I collect antique table cloths. To clean them I soak them in a product called Biz(can be found in laundry detergent aisle) overnight and then add a little Tide with Bleach in the washer the next morning on delicate cycle. This usually cleans them well without damaging them. It may take a couple washes but should work. RE: White Tuxedo Shirts Turned Yellow Post By (Guest Post) (02/20/2006) Besides the colour remover by Rit, there is also one by Tintex. Some whites can't take CHLORINE bleach because they are artificially whitened. The colour remover usually takes the garments back to their original bright white.There is also a product called something like (YELLOW OUT) that is very good. After you have gotten the yellow out, you could try peroxide or a non-chlorine bleach as an alternative.

If the shirts are all cotton, bleach should be fine but if they are a mixture, which many things are these days, the Rit Dye remover might work the best. http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf520018.tip.html Susan from ThriftyFun
