I did a load with hot water, but accidentally left a blue tank top in there... ugh. Now everything is blue! Is there anything I can do to salvage my white (and other very light, originally various pastel colored) clothes? Right now everything is still sitting in the washer, wet...
Thank you!!!!

I worked for a clothing care company!! On the stain resolution care line!
What is recommended: purchase some RIT Color Remover and follow the directions on the box.....relatively inexpensive too! It's a dye remover for colored and white fabrics!!
Good luck!

Take the pure white ones and soak them overnight in bleach water. the pastels wash with some bleach but not a lot and You might have to do them more than once. Tintex dye sells a dye to take out color, that also might help.

For whites, Go to any fabric store, , Pick-up dye remover on little box( less than $ 1.00) , It's at the dye section. (It's a chemical that take old color out before you dye fabric when you want to change color of your clothes.)
Run your wash machine with HOT water and dye remover, and your white will be white as your never seen before.

I have used a product called "Run Away" by Dylon with great success. You can get it at Fabricland. It has magically saved my boys from wearing pink underwear many times! Just follow the directions on the box and your clothes (all colours) will be back to normal.

take out the blue tank top and add a bunch of bleach to it and rewash them in hot water. do not put them in the drier until they are back to what is a tollerable shade or white. good luck!
at least blue is closer to white than pink!

You can try bleaching the whites, but the pastels are now blue.

you ought to purchase products that eliminate the greater beneficial shade. 2 manufacturers we've right here (in Australia) are Dygone and Runaway. i've got extensively utilized some advertisement stain soakers (non bleach) effectively in the previous. i don't be attentive to in the event that they're available the place you reside, ask your chemist. do not bypass directly to bleach it each so often would not react to correctly with some fabric. stable success.

Get some oxy clean, Soak the clothes in bleach, oxy clean and your laundry detergent. Then wash again. That has worked for me.
