Yes. I've heard Milton solution is good at removing tea stains as well.

Have you tried steradent tablets for remiving stains? Dd told me about it. It works.

Great suggestion, Galen. With a cotton bud. That should keep him busy for the rest of the Bank Holiday. grin

I would get DH to work out the solution and bleach his own b***dy shirt but God knows what else he'd bleach in the process.

You may ask what was a partially sighted man doing at the sink with a bottle of bleach?

Ans. Cleaning the tea stains off my favourite Cath Kidston mug. Is that supposed to make me feel guilty for shouting at him???? hmm

Try hand painting bleach onto each of the dark checks, or get him to do it as a punishmentgrin

I think that unless you bleach the colour completely out, the previously bleached bit will always be paler than the rest of the shirt...sad

I have just calmed down after yelling at DH for spilling bleach down the front of his new shirt. angry It is/was dark blue check and the bleached bit is now grey check. He has suggested I bleach the rest of the shirt to match. Do you think this would work?
