When I soaked my new clothes in detergent, I was not aware that some previously washed clothes had left some colors in the water. Those colors have stained my brand new clothes, and I have tried to remove it by applying tooth paste and other things but the colors won't go away.
Please suggest some ways to remove it.
Wash it again, in the hottest water it can stand (read label) using your normal detergent and a Color Catcher(tm). This works for me about 90% of the time if I haven't used the dryer to dry it. If a dryer was used, try it anyway, you might get lucky. It also might take more than 1 washing depending how intense the color transfer, type of material, time passed, etc. Good Luck!
