I got some grease on my favourite linen trousers when using a wheelchair lift in work. I bought some pretty flower patches and put them over the grease spots and my trousers are good as new (and a wee bit hippie!) I don't know if that helps but I was overjoyed at not having to throw my trousers out.

depending on the colour a permanent marker is good you will have to keep topping it up from time to time. I did it with a black one bleach left a white mark used the marker for a long time after.

Parazone and bleach are really hard to deal with. They don't so much stain the fabric, but instead they remove whatever was used to create the original colour. My black cotton trousers have a few orange splash marks from bleach. I'm thinking of using black thread to sew over the spots, but if yours are large marks, and not casual wear, the suggestion about flowers sounds good.

Or, could you get one of those T-shirt design pens/markers (they used to use them in Summer Projects years ago)? I think you iron-in the colour to make it 'fast' afterwards.

Many thanks they are navy and a lot of spots on one leg could not cover all of them but will try the maker. I have written to the company but no reply as yet will let you all know what they say. have a good day.

i got a lot of bleach on one leg of my pants (black) after trying all sorts of things i came up with the idea of fabric paint and it worked a treat it comes in a tube and you can use it like a pen it will cover a huge area if you use it in a circular motion and it has never faded you can get it in all colours its magic... most good craft shops stock it....its worth your while to try it...BUT DONT WASH YOUR PANTS FOR AT LEAST 48 HOURS AFTER TO GIVE IT TIME TO DRY...... good luck with it.......

Navy dye in the washing. Machine with lots of salt to stop it running in the next wash.
