Carbona® Color Run Remover | Powerful Color Bleed Eliminator | Fixes Color Run Accidents | 2.6 Oz, 1 Pack

First: I would soak diff color items separately because diff soak times needed. You don't want to fade a dark colored shirt...I was really tired and accidentally threw in maroon pants. I ruined some brand new shirts I just bought --- a beige one, a blue one and some gray. Oxiclean didn't work and this was my last hope. Yesterday I left it overnight to test in the beige shirt which was the worst. DON'T do this for colors. The beige wouldn't matter. It looked tie dye in pink and I wish I had snapped a photo. Anyway, just woke up and the pink is gone! The black lining of the shirt did turn grey but that's ok with me. I saw tiny spots but that may wash out plus I only used like a spoon of the bag to test it in that shirt. I am so happy I found this. I did it on a dark blue shirt and the red spot was gone in 5 minutes. I didn't want it to fade so its in washer. The only thing is that Amazon is expensive. You can get this for $3.99 from their website or like 4.50 from Walmart online. I do not recommend putting it in the washer because 1) you may need longer to soak than a wash cycle and 2) the wash cycle needs 3 of these packages

This did not work. It was a one-use product that had little to no effect on the clothing. When purchasing the product it appeared that the color remover could be used more than once and that one box would be enough for two items of clothing. Once delivered, the directions specified that I would need three boxes of the product to remove the transferred color. That would have cost me $30. I am not happy about this and feel tricked and cheated.

The Carbona Color Remover really works! I accidentally threw a dark indigo pair of blue jeans in with light colored clothes. The dark dye stained everything! Instructions say dissolve powder in small bucket (I used 2 gallon small bucket) of very hot water. Once dissolved, add garment fully submerged & soak 3 mins & check after every 3 mins til stain gone. I soaked each garment individually as needed. I got busy & forgot I was soaking a salmon pair of shorts & now they're peach lol! That was my fault tho bc they were left soaking 30 mins. 🙄 Anyway my tip: Don't multitask while soaking & check garment every 3 mins. Will definitely buy again bc rest of clothes came out perfectly! 👍🏻😉

Worked well to remove red from a white shirt and a few other items that had color bleeds

I used this on two things, a pair of pajamas and a t-shirt that had both gone through a wash with a red shirt. Both had red marks on them. The shirt still has the red marks; the pajamas got ruined. Sure, the red came out of the pajamas, but the once light blue pajamas are now white, and the collar which was navy is now brown. Not what I expected, since I tested them both first like the box suggested, but didn't see anything happen in the test. They are still useable, but I'm not happy.

Classic problem: White shirt (- unfortunately with dark blue stripes) and red color-bleeding stains from a sock that somehow got into the washing machine... Of course I was worried about the blue stripes using a color run remover but it was either garbage can or give it a try ... In the instructions it says "hot water" but I was not so sure about hot water/shrinking either. So I filled my sink with warm tap water (about the same temperature I would wash the shirt in the washing machine) and dissolved the contents of one package. (- I thought if warm water temperature would not work I could still raise the temperature of the water by adding hot water from water cooker.) I hold the shirt by its collar and soaked the area with the stain for a very short time (only seconds) and checked the result. (I would have increase the soaking time if necessary.) Luckily the stain was gone and the stripes were still there a n d still blue! I rinsed the shirt very thoroughly with warm water, hung it on a laundry rack to dry, and put it two days later into the washing machine with other shirts for a normal washing cycle. Now it is good as new! - Just two additional remarks: In my case it was possible to hold the shirt on its collar while soaking it, otherwise I would have worn gloves because I did not want to get in contact with the fluid. I also did not want to breath the vapors, so I opened the window and took care of a good airflow. Last but not least, other reviews mention that the original color might also faint or disappear so it really depends on the garment/original color if the result turns out as expected, and if you have any other alternative. In my case, I am very happy with the result and give gladly all 5 stars!

I would not recommend this color run remover to anyone. Basically, I had a big yellow sweatshirt that (unfortunately) mixed with a blue towel -- thus tinging my yellow sweatshirt into a very ugly lime-green. I immediately ordered this color run remover in order to help rectify this. After following the instructions on the box, I tried to use this remover on the yellow sweatshirt. It immediately began ridding the yellow sweatshirt COMPLETELY of color. Yep, the lime green went away, but it was soon replaced by a very pale, off-white yellow. I promptly threw the Carbona box into my trash can. However, I did find a solution! I ended up using a Shout Color Catcher into a fresh wash with the yellow sweatshirt -- and it completely restored it to normal. So definitely give them a look!

It WORKS!! This stuff got out all the pink dye off my favorite white shorts and white blouse.

Does the job well.

Useless product. It decolored my entire pink dress (some areas were pink and other half turned brown). Tried on 3 different dresses and all got decolored instead of removing the stain. Best thing - you can't return the product and your dress is also gone!

It didn’t work at all not even a small area of stain got removed from this product ..the cloth was as it is like before..very disappointed..so expensive but worthless

This worked really well on colour-fast items. It removed the run colour almost instantly. One or 2 items had to soak a bit longer. It is not bleach, so it works on coloured fabric without affecting the original colour. Obviously it is not omniscient, it removes colour, so garments that are not 100 colour fast will have their colour affected as well. However, i used it on beige, khaki, orange and a multi colored t-shirt without problem. A red t-shirt did lose some original colour though. My only complaint is that the packet is small for the price. It is one single use packet in the box. So when the instructions say to use 2 packets for a full washing machine load, you need to buy 2 boxes…don’t assume there are 2 packets included in the box.

J'ai essayé ce produit pour faire disparaître une tâche bleue sur un t-shirt blanc : ça n'a pas vraiment marché. La tâche est légèrement atténuée mais guère plus.
