Accidentally spilling bleach on your clothes.

What do you do when you get a splotch of bleach on your clothes? I called myself mopping the floor with bleach yesterday and some of it splashed on my gray sweatpants and now I have small splotches on the legs. I'm so mad cause I loved those pants. Part of me is thinking I should bleach the rest so it'll be all one color again, but who knows how that might turn out.

Shrug it off. Nothing much you can do about it.

Ny is right. Not much you can do. I have used a permanent or laundry marker on something that's black for small touch ups. But it might be difficult to do that with gray.

I hate how insidious bleach can be. You can have no idea you splattered any until the discolored spots show up.

It doesn't come up much since about the only thing we still use bleach for is cleaning out the swimming pool.

Once bleach removes the color, you're sunk and aside from taking a spray bottle and hitting the item all over to make it a speckled, uniform look, or dying it a darker color, there's nothing you can really do to repair the damage.

Interestingly though, here's a helpful hint for white clothes that have stubborn stains on them: Take the item, put an old cloth or paper towels under the spot where the stain is, then take bleach and mix one part of that with two equal parts of water to dilute (i.e. one tablespoon bleach, two tablespoons water), then either pour it through the stain, or dip a Q-tip into it and blot the stain, depending on its size. The stain will filter out onto the cloth below it, but this only works on pure white clothing.

That really sucks, that's happened to me before too. Nothing you can do, turn them into "cleaning clothes".
