Mould remover stain on clothes

Hi all,

Yesterday I used some Dettol mould remover spray (to great effect) in my bathroom. I was very careful but then a little bit of it accidentally dribbled out of the nozzle and landed on my black polyester top. As a result I now have a nice rust-coloured stain!

I've tried soaking the top in my usual stain remover mix of vinegar, water and washing up liquid and it has gone down a little bit, but the rest seems stubborn. Any ideas?

That is bleach that has gone on your top so it has removed colour rather than adding a stain. You would need to add colour to make it black again. You could dye it or use a black fabric pen to fill in the bleached part

You need special dye with polyester I would use a permanent marker pen.
