[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 164869, member: 85"]No, No, NO! The first time I did that it took all the colored pattern out of the item. Can't remember what it was at the moment that I did it too. Only that I ruined it with the bleach. As greg said use peroxide. Every one says to get it at beauty supply places. However, I have used the regular peroxide from the pharmacy with good results. Sometimes I just coat it and let it sit. Sometimes I soak for a day or two. Have had no problem with colors fading. Bleach is the worst thing to use on anything. It is way overated. Vinegar, peroxide, borax are all better substitutes.[/QUOTE]
