Hi everyone,

This is sort of off topic, but I spattered a bit of bleach (water and
bleach) onto my black pants that match a suit jacket, so I bought some rit
dye, but I am not sure how to do the best way. I read the instructions, but
am wondering if anyone has a better idea for dyeing a couple of small bleach
spots.

TIA!

Michelle Giordano

Hey

I have touched up bleach spots on clothes using a permanent magic marker.
Then touch the spot with an iron after ink is dried

Michelle I did the same to my favourite black jeans recently and was
wondering the same thing... would the pen also work on jeans? (and not show
up in black light?)

Jessamy:
I used a marker to touch up bleach marks on black cotton casual
pants. After the second or third washing, the marks turned a blue
color. Okay for around the house or to mail a letter, but the
pants were ruined. PAT

Thanks Pat!

option 2 I have been contemplating was just bleaching the jeans and then
dying them with a black dye - the thinking being that like this I would be
guaranteed the same results all over instead of (possibly) lighter spots
where the bleach spattered would this work?
