Left red pillow case in with whites

[NachoQueen]

I'm such an idiot. Managed to put a white wash on with a red pillow case inside. Now every single white school top is pink. I've ordered some whitening oxi action stuff but is this enough to get them white again or should I stick them all in a bath of bleach?

You need to buy a colour run remover.

Thank you so much. I'll look now

Colour run remover, it does work.

The soak overnight in vanish oxi whites powder, wash as normal.

They will be fine

Colour run remover is good, best to act swiftly.
If items that have been impacted by colour run are ( meant to be!) plain white then tbh soaking in a bowl of water with some bleach usually works pretty well too.

Can I jump on here and ask a question about the colour run stuff. Would it work on something that is red and white (a duvet cover) where the red has bled and the white is now pink? Worth a go do you think? Thank you!

It will take dye out of the parts which are supposed to be red too,

I once did DHs work shirts on a hot wash, not realising a red sock was stuck to the drum. The colour run remover worked well on the white shirts, but the striped ones faded badly - iirc some of the blue stripes ended up yellowish.

Ah ok, that's what I thought might happen. Thank you for replying!

Really appreciate all your messages here - thank you!
