Bleach stains can be frustrating, but there are a couple of powerful techniques you can try at home to restore the appearance of your fabric. Here’s how to tackle those stubborn spots:


2. Fabric Marker or Permanent Marker

Using a fabric or permanent marker is a simple and effective fix, especially for small bleach stains.

What You’ll Need:

  • Fabric marker or permanent marker (in a color that matches your fabric)
  • Iron (optional, for heat-setting fabric marker)

Instructions:

  1. Choose the Right Marker: Pick a fabric or permanent marker that closely matches the color of the fabric.
  2. Test on a Small Area: Test the marker on an inconspicuous area of the fabric to ensure it matches.
  3. Color the Stain: Carefully color in the bleach-stained area. Work in light strokes, applying multiple layers if needed to achieve an even tone.
  4. Set the Color: For fabric markers, you may need to set the color with heat. Check the instructions for your marker type, and if needed, press an iron gently over the spot for a few seconds.

This technique is especially useful for small spots and for black or dark-colored clothing.


These DIY techniques can help camouflage bleach stains and bring your clothes or fabrics back to life.
