Hi all!
Ive noticed as I have invested more into nicer clothing, whenever I get a stain, any standard stain removal or instant addressing of said stain ends up always either discoloring the area, or wearing out the dye.
For example, I have two shirts that i splurged on, one got a tiny oil stain so I hit it with a tide pen. The area where the stain was got insanely faded, almost bleached looking, even though I was careful and didnt oversaturate. The second one I instead used a tiny bit of detergent, and gentle rubbing with a soft cloth. Same result, as the area is permanently faded and looks like the dye faded out. Experienced another similar instance with some unknown crusty spot on my nice pants that ended up fading the area as well.
Is this a result of higher quality clothing being typically sensitive? How else does everyone address stains or blotches without fading out the dye? This has been driving me crazy, especially because these were all garments I felt extremely confident wearing.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
