How to remove powder dye from clothes

3 replies

DDs school had an activity today that included throwing dye powder at each other. It was a mufti day and she was wearing pale but not white clothes. Have just washed the items, not realising what it was and the blue dye has remained.

I'm now soaking in Vanish colour stain remover.

Does anyone know what I should be doing?

But late now, but powder stains can sometimes be removed with a soft bristled paintbrush if you can get the knack of flicking it off instead of brushing it in.

I’m almost sure you can buy a stain devil for blue ink that might help?

Dylan do a thing called “dye stripper” fir taking the colour out of colour out of clothes before dying. That might help, but will take the base colour too.

If I had known what it was I'd have brushed it. So stupid of me.
