Every now and then when a buy a new shirt and wash it, it comes out with a colored stain on the shirt. Sometimes it's pink, orange, or even red, and I dont even own a pink or orange shirt! I don't know where these colors even come from, and it usually happens on shirts I havent washed before. I always wash in cold water, and use "Clorox 2 for colors" non chlorine bleach and "Woolite for darks". Can anybody please help me?

I noticed that recently when I washed a new white shirt in for the first time.. it was a pink blodge right on the collar at the front and I checked the radiator that I hung it on and cleaned it and then I checked the coat hanger. Don't panic thought, put a bit of Vanish spray on it and stick it in the wash and it comes out...

Maybe you need a new washer. Are you washing AND rinsing in cold water? Do you over load the washer? Is there somethin' caught in the washer at the bottom? Like a marker or somethin'? Are you washing at the right settings? Is someone tampering with the washer while you're away? Investigate on this.

Something colored stucked in your washer (probably an underwear or a sock). Check corners adn bottom. :)
