Colour intensive garments can quickly cause discolourations when they are mistakenly washed with other garments. The colours bleed out and distribute the colour residue onto the entire laundry. The original colours can be re-created with Dr. Beckmann In-Wash Colour Run Remover. Special ingredients remove the discolourations and destroy the unwanted colours. After the colour removal, the garments look as they did before.Ideal for

- Synthetic fibres
- Jeans

- For the removal of sun lotion/milk or self tanner stains
How to use it
Container (30 – 95 °C)
Completely dissolve the powder in 6 litres of hot (above 30 °C) water.
Add up to 1,5 kg of garments and submerge fully. Do not add any detergent. The garments must be completely submerged in the solution the entire time; if necessary, use (old) plates to weigh down the garments adequately.
Close the container airtight (e.g. lid).
Allow garments to soak for at least 4 hours. For best results allow washing to soak overnight, for up to 24 hours.
Rinse thoroughly several times with clean water, or wash separately in the washing machine.
With stubborn colour runs the process can be safely repeated. We recommend wearing rubber gloves when using the product. People with respiratory diseases should avoid using the product in containers.
Washing Machine (60 – 95 °C)
Load the drum with up to 1,5 kg of garments.
Select the max. allowable temperature (above 60 °C) and start the programme without the pre-wash cycle. Do not add any detergent.
Only after 15 minutes, pour the content of the sachet into the main compartment of the detergent drawer and then add immediately 1–2 litres of water. (Top-loaders: pour directly onto the drum)
If light colour run stains are still visible on the garments after the application, we recommend repeating the process using the "container" method.
FAQ
I've used the Colour Run Remover and the colours are now different than before. What can I do?
Perhaps you did not perform the colour-fastness test, before you began the colour removal process. If the textiles were not colourfast, then the original colour may have changed through the application of the colour remover. In this case it will not be possible to re-create the original colour. If this was not the case, we recommend repeating the application in the container with a manual washing process, to intensify the colour removal process and completely discolour the textiles through the longer reaction time.
I have intensively treated my discoloured laundry with colour remover in the washing machine, but the colour removal did not work.
Repeat the process in a container, and let the colour-removal solution react overnight. If the laundry is still discoloured, then the unwanted colour was colourfast, and cannot be removed.
