Colours ran in the wash for school jerseys. White is now grey, ADVICE!!

Pinkycharm · 21-04-2017 4:41pm #1

So our school jerseys which were really expensive were given to someone to wash and they seriously messed up. Colours are green white and black and even asking them to wash at 40 with a colour catcher (which I provided to them) was too much, they did 60 without one. It was the jerseys first wash and now we've grey, green and black. Is there anyway they can be saved? I bought the punch ultra white stuff today but would that effect the other colours in any way if I used it.

It may seem like a stupid question I just don't want to make them worse.

Thanks in advance

Is there anywhere inconspicuous that you could cut out a little bit of the green and black material and even the white material? Inside seams or hems? Then try the ultra white stuff on those pieces. At least that way you will get an idea if it will work at all on the white or if it will damage the colours....

While they're great for whites, a lot of those colour removal things are bleach based, so could well deplete your colours...I know I tried a multicoloured top before and it didn't work. But it was my own top & my own fault, so different scenario.

All I will say is Good Luck.....I think you're going to need it!!

Have you tested a spritz of Hydrogen Peroxide on a small area?
