Any you guys know how to remove colour bleed? Or know a dry cleaning place that can do it?
This one shirt I have, started to bleed in one section. I tried "shout" and liqiud detergent 3x today and it still has a little faint of red in this white section. It's little, but still annoyes me. |

In the future - wash clothes that could bleed w/ a little vinegar on the first wash to set the colors.
As far as how to get it out? You may be SOL. I ask how to get the red out of the white. |

| Since it's white you can generally bleach it out. I did that with one of my s, just put a tiny bit of bleach on a paper towel and lightly rubbed the spot to get it out. However, this may prove difficult if it's too close to the coloured area. Also, bleach isn't too good for most fabrics (my shirt was 100% cotton so it's not that bad) |

you can use bleach but make sure to dilute it before putting it directly on your clothes.
if you put it directly on your clothes it will burn a whole it in especially if it is cotton. |

No, it's not on my pride and joy ... it's on this one.
The bleed is on the botton area, the inside flap where I botton the shirts together is red, just like the collar. Right now the red is really light. |
