Prevention is always easier than repair:
- Never pour bleach directly onto fabric
- Dilute bleach before use
- Keep bleach away from colored clothing
- Wear old clothes when cleaning
- Rinse hands or surfaces before touching fabric
šæ When to avoid DIY fixes
Be careful with DIY methods if:
- The fabric is silk or wool
- The garment is very expensive or delicate
- The stain is very large or uneven
In such cases, professional textile cleaners may give better results.
