try oxy clean if you don't want to use bleach, but personally, I would just bleach away!

Been there...I think we all have at some point or another!! Bleach is the only thing I could suggest and it works great/best if you allow the washer to fill up with water, laundry detergent and bleach and then add your clothes in last. It won't necessarily return your whites to perfect pristine condition, but should do the trick depending on what type of clothes/fabric. (i.e. socks tend to respond well to it versus blouses not fairing so well)

Hello my name is Amanda..I always make mistakes like the one you made with your white shirt.But i dont think that there is a solution to solve your problem without using bleach. The thing I do is wash it again but that time put it in with the whites so the bleach can make it white again.I hope it works as well as it has for me..Good Luck!

sorry, but I don't know of any way to get whites again without bleaching the pink out.
Just add a couple of tablespoons of bleach to some cold water and let the shirt soak in it for about 10 minutes.

There is a product that I have used when I didn't know colors were going to run when I did the laundry. It's call Rit Color Remover. It only removes the color that was transferred to it from the laundry run and not any of the designs. It's available in supermarkets in the laundry section as well as many discount department stores. I've always been pleased with the results and it's simple to use. Good Luck!

If you want them to be white again you have to use bleach. Nothing else will really work. Next time sort your clothes: Whites, lights, and darks! Did you not learn this at laundry 101 class...

i dont think you can do it with out bleach but you could try nappy sand and soak your clothes for ages or a really strong stain remover, sorry. Ask a dry cleaner they know all the tricks. good luck

you could try bleaching it through a few washes, if that doesn't work you could always try to turn the pink ones MORE pink and then maybe no one will notice!

Your whites will not be white again, not with bleach not without. the pink hue will fade slowly with each bleach wash but will not disapear.. your are S.O.L. ..... sorry..
