Bleach is typically a clear or slightly yellow liquid, but it is often sold in white plastic bottles.
Bleach removes color from fabrics and surfaces by breaking down the chemical bonds that give the color its hue. This process is called oxidation, where the bleach molecules react with the color molecules, causing them to lose their color.
Sodium hypochlorite is typically a liquid at room temperature. It is commonly used as a bleach or disinfectant.
Bleach rinses out of clothing and what you have left is the absence of color in the clothing that you put bleach on. The only way to remove the spots with no color is to redye the item.
To remove bleach from clothes, you can try soaking the garment in a solution of vinegar and water, rinsing it thoroughly with cold water, and then washing it with a color-safe detergent. If the bleach stain is stubborn, you may need to use a bleach-neutralizing agent or try rewashing the garment with a color-safe bleach. Prevent future bleach stains by being cautious when using bleach and separating white clothes from colored ones when doing laundry.
