-
Our Color Remover makes it possible to remove the existing color from yet-to-be dyed fabric, giving you a dye-ready canvas for spectacular results and true color.
-
It’s also the perfect solution for removing dye stains (washed by mistake with colored items) and even food stains (such as fruit juice, ketchup and tea) from whites.
-
Unlike traditional bleach, which contains chlorine that can damage fabric, Color Remover is chlorine-free so that you can safely dye fabric after removing it’s color.
-
Perfect for dye projects where you want to completely change the color of the fabric or as a pre-treatment for faded, discolored and stained fabric. It can even be used to remove dye from fabric dyed incorrectly.

Use Color Remover in a well–ventilated area. Open any windows and turn on a fan if you have one.
- Pre-wash item in warm, soapy water.
- Fill a stainless steel pot with enough water for the fabric to move freely. Cover pot and heat water on stove top to just below boiling (or around 90°C).
- When water begins to simmer, add one packet of Color Remover. Mix well.
- Keep temperature at a low simmer.
- Wet the item you are going to be removing the color from and add it to the bath.
- Stir occasionally. Some fabrics will lose their color in as fast as 10 minutes, others can take up to 20 minutes. Once your garment turns white or off-white, you can remove it from the bath.
- Rinse in warm water and then gradually cool water until rinse water begins to run clear.
- Wash in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.
- Item is now ready to be dyed.
