how to remove black spots from clothes - #14279
I am really frustrated right now because I just discovered black spots on my favorite white shirt. A couple of weeks ago, I left it in the washing machine for too long (I know, my bad!), and when I finally took it out, I noticed those awful black spots everywhere! I've tried washing it again thinking maybe it was just some weird detergent residue, but nope, no change. Then I thought about using bleach, but honestly, I'm terrified it might ruin the fabric even more. I did some digging online on how to remove black spots from clothes and saw a bunch of methods, some say vinegar works, others suggest using baking soda, and I've even seen people talk about rubbing alcohol? Like, what’s the deal with that? Could mixing stuff maybe make it worse? This shirt was a birthday gift, and I'm really bummed about it. Anyone have solid advice or tips about how to remove black spots from clothes without damaging them? I just want my shirt to be wearable again. If you’ve dealt with this, what actually worked for you? Any ideas, pretty please?
