Fixing a Bleach Spot
Really dumb question here, but maybe someone can offer suggestions. About 2 weeks after buying a pretty nice collared shit (Kind of pricey too), I some how got a tiny drop of bleach on the back. Now the nice forest green shirt has a small white spot on the back.
Any suggestions on fixing that? Maybe toss the whole thing in bleach, and make it a white collard shit? lol

Eh, you're pretty much out of luck unless you can find a sharpie that exactly matches the color of the shirt.
-
I'd to know this too.
One time I thought about taking a blue marker and just coloring over the bleached spot lol.
-
as far as i know, there is no correcting a bleach mark, unless you colour it in!.
-
if you have the receipt, then you can return it and say that you bought the shirt without realizing that there was a tiny white spot. they probably will give you the exact same shirt back.
i once returned a shirt that i ripped. luckily it was a small one and the store just replaced it for me.

Bleaching something is essentially stripping it of the coloring, or dye. There is no reversing it, short of redying the shirt, or the aforementioned sharpie method. Sorry dude!

What Lahna said. Bleaching is irreversible. You can try to return it but usually, once you've worn/washed a shirt there's no returning it.

^^^ not true, well wait. i think that i didn't wash the shirt. i don't remember, it was a long time ago.

Redying it could work. Hrm...

most likely, it won't work.

ask some local painter to mix exactly the same color and paint it, lol :) i know there is a special paint/powder to color the clothes but as far as i know its just a black color...
-
^^^ that sounds like too much work. wait how much did the shirt cost to begin with?

Since it's ruined anyway, I figured I could either bleach the whole thing, or redye it, and it may look purposely "grundgy" or something.
