Color Run Remover

Color Run Remover

  • REVERSE COLOR BLEED ACCIDENTS: Did that red sock make it into your load of whites? No problem. Add Color Run Remover in your wash to remove dye and streaks from mixed-wash accidents.
  • BRIGHTER WHITES: Separating colors and whites for different washes doesn’t always go as planned. Use Color Run Remover to brighten your whites that have become dingy from dye absorbed from other garments.
  • VERSATILE USE: The Color Run Remover can be used in a separate container (bucket/basin/sink), front loader machines & top loader machines. Be sure to follow the directions on the box.
  • COLORFAST FABRICS ONLY: If the dyes have not been properly set on the garment (colorfast) the original color may be removed too. Do not use on silk, denim, khaki, synthetic fabrics, leather, suede, vinyl or any garment that has bled onto itself.
  • THE CARBONA WAY: When it comes to cleaning, we know our stuff. Cleaning-related catastrophes? Please. Stains that haunt you forever? Yeah, right. Disasters are comical to us because, with specific products formulated to treat specific messes, we always win. Check out other Carbona cleaning products and get your messes under control.
