:madhell: I am sure this has been asked before, but here it goes anyway... I was washing my work clothes (cold water), and it appears my brown slacks bled onto a lighter colored knit top. I have rewashed it twice since then, using Woolite and an oxy-additive, but it still has some color left in it. Is there something else I can use to remove the rest of the color? I have not dried it for fear of setting the color permanently.

maybe apply a wet rag to the clothing and blot...see if it transfer onto the white rag...if it does you can try taking it out that way then launder and dry if its good
