Lingerie Whitener

In a moment of madness this morning I decided to 'freshen up' some white bras using a Dylon lingerie whitener. Followed the instructions on the sachets carefully.........but now have bras covered with tiny blue speckles. Wished I'd never bothered! Any ideas on what I can do to restore them - or have I ruined them?

They said that they had not come across this problem before and could think of no reason why it should have happened but suggested that I send them the items and they would investigate and do their best to remedy.
Now that's all very well but it was almost my entire collection of bras! However I gave them a good soak in another stain remover product and washed them again and there's a great improvement. The bras themselves look fine with just a little speckling on the inside of the straps except for one (thankfully my least favourite) which is slightly more coloured. I'm hoping they improve with each wash and don't intend to take it further. Frankly can't be bothered at the moment and I can live with them.
Perhaps I was just unlucky but I'd be wary of using it again or would try it out on some old undies first! Good luck!

i'm not sure that i want to try it now! perhaps i will try what you suggest - on old ones first but they don't fit properly now, so there's an excuse to go shopping!
