I just got bleach on a favorite shirt of mine! I just bought it too only a month ago! So does anyone have any tips? I know usually once it is bleached it is finished there is nothing you can do...but I thought maybe someone had some kind of miracle cure out there for me???

The only suggestion i have will only work if the shirt is all one color and then possibly depend on what type of fabric it is. I have had this happen to a shirt of mine that was mostly all black and made of cotton, splashed some bleach containing cleanser on it while i ws cleaning with out realizing until it had already started bleaching out the color. I went to the store and picked up a box of RIT dye in black (firly in expensive) Mixed up some of it and applied it to the area where i had gotten the bleach on, and followed the directions on the box, just being careful not to get it on the upper part of the shirt that had some other colors to it. It worked very nicley. If i catch it in the right light, i can sometimes see where the spot was, but only because i know it is there, no one else would ever notice. The fabric dye is the kind used to tye-dying and what not. If you can find a color that would match the shirt, you can try this.. Otherwise maybe splash more bleach on it in random patterns and try and make it look on purpose! *lol* Good luck!

I don't know of any miracle cure. When the colours gone there is nothing you can do to get it back. Is it possible to sew or stick something over it - or is the bleach in a place that it would look silly?
