My husband left a pen in his pocket for the 2nd time in two weeks and it went through the wash and dryer. I have 14 of his shirts that aren't wearable. What can I do? Would bleach work?

I use folex carpet cleaner and it gets out everything. I put a cupful or two if the shirts are really dirty in with the laundry detergent. It really works.

Bleach won't work. Don't use it as it could set it in.

This is going to take a lot of work over the next week. Spray stain with hair spray and scrub scrub scrub with cleaning toothbrush until stain comes out.

Then wash as usual.

I heard hair spray is good for ink. But I’m not sure if it’ll work after the garment has been washed and dried. Good luck.

Would folex carpet cleaner work to take out orange baby food stains
