Is there a way to fix the color fading on my light color t-shirts. Is there any kind of color 'restorer' ?

Question

This isn't color fading that you get from a shirt being old, and I only notice this with light color cotton t-shirts (light blue, tan, peach, light green) and this never happens with my dark color shirts or pants. At first I thought it was the shirt manufacturer's fault, but it is happening with a lot of different brands. There are light color spots (which seem like bleach spots) that appear on the shirts in big patches and I seem to notice it after I have washed the shirts, but I always use color safe bleach (if any). I make sure and wash like colors together, but if by any chance I happened to get some of the color to fade from one shirt onto another is there any way to restore my light color shirt back to the way it was? These aren't stains like blood, wine, or any kind of liquid stains, and I don't think they are sweat spots. They look like bleach spots or color fading spots. I know there are plenty of stain removers out there, but is there any kind of color restorer? Please help.

Answer 1

This has happened to me but I wentto the cleaner's to have them retord as not to ruin them ant moe but it cost almost as much as I had paid for them when I boght them, so I just left them as is and wear them layered, so the stain orspot's don't show, and now i learned that a bit of vinegar, and some baking soda work's.

Answer 2

I would follow the manufactuer's laundering directions to the T. (No pun intended!)

Be sure you use cold water to wash your shirts. If the water is soft in your area, you may need less detergent. Use a quality detergent, and I wouldn't use a color safe bleach unless the shirts had spots or stains.

I think Tide or Cheer makes a detergent for colors, but I don't think there's any such product as a color restorer. You might look into buying a dye for your shirts if you love the color and don't want to replace the shirts.

I'd say hot water is the culprit, but since you didn't mention the temperature, I can't swear to it.

Good luck.

Answer 4

DO NOT use any type of bleach except on white Tshirts. And DO NOT use just any detergent. Buy some that is color safe only....like Cheer, but be sure its the type without bleach, color safe or not. Any bleach discolors colors.
