My son soiled his light blue bunting. I threw it in the wash with all the other baby clothes. My daughter's burgundy dress ran and now his bunting in (unevenly) purple!! I took it right from the washer and put it in the bathtub where it is now soaking with ample detergent. Is there any way to make it blue again (or at least not so purple) ?

I think there is some laundry product which takes out stains by run-on colours. Maybe call Sano's free number on their products and they would know?

Is it worth taking it to a dry cleaner? I called and asked if they could get it out and they said they's have to see it.

What about baking soda - it is supposed to oxidize the clothing that is what that Oxyclean is all about & some elbow grease could never be a bad idea during soaking

I gave my daughter’s outfit to the dry cleaners when I couldn’t get silly putty off it. The color changed slightly on the dress, but they got it all out, for $4 !
