Tipex on clothes
 
My daughter spilled tipex on her school tracksuit, would anyone know how to remove it without taking colour out of clothes, i have scrapped as much as i can but white mark left behind?

Tippex
 
Saw this on yahoo, it might help!


Tippex Stains - Sponge the stain with amyl acetate you can get in pure form, from a drycleaners). Air dry. Repeat treatment if necessary. Rub gently with detergent, then launder.
Or you could try Eucalyptus spray, that can get anything out. Spray then brush into centre of stain, blot and do it again until it is all gone. Also believe it or not WD 40 is pretty good too. Once it is all gone, rub really, gently with detergent and let dry. Good luck :-) Or use tippex thinner.

Lidl stocks a stain removing powder its called, W5 multi purpose stain remover, its in a blue tub, don't ask me what's in it but it's powerful stuff, it removed biro from my daughters top and gloss paint from my jeans! I have taken clothes that my partners sister thought she would have to throw out and returned them without a mark, it's great stuff just wet the garment and rub in a generous amount of the powder then soak over night when you wash it the next day put a scoop of the stain removing powder in with your detergent and it will come out good as new!
