hi, i got a color that was darker than the image (it’s athletic gray and I expected a lighter gray) and i want to lighten it a bit but not entirely bleach it. is there any method to do this?

thanks in advance!

The design is based on some song lyrics from a band that I've been really inspired by lately.

I'll use black textile paint to fix some of the places where the bleach bled a bit. I'm new to bleach art so it's not perfect, but I'm very happy with the result!

So my side job this year has been making shirts and bleaching with a spray bottle. I always wear nitrile gloves and a respirator with a 3M 6006 filter. I can tell it's working because when I remove it I can smell the bleach I couldn't before.. I always work with my garage door open and try not to linger in the area once I'm done with my respirator off. When I'm rinsing shirts I have the bathroom fan going.

But, I'm still finding I'm getting asthma now and then and I figure it has to be from the bleach particles. I replaced my filters on my respirator when I found I could smell through it and I could feel the effects (lasted around 3 months) Could it be that I'm just sensitive to this after several broncheal burns early on? I appreciate any advice.

I’ve just started taking on commissions and I’m yet to find a solid online stockist based in the UK that offers heavyweight, 70+ percent cotton black hoodies at a decent price. I used amazon when i was first getting into the hobby and found that brands will just send completely different percentages to as advertised, and i don’t want to use amazon now I’m getting regular work from it.

I ordered some from a website that were fruit of the loom but they arrived and feel so thin, cheap and kinda scratchy on the outside! I can’t in good faith sell that to strangers or friends, I want my hoodies to be something you could wear on a cold day and be warm!!

Any help much appreciated!

👍👍👍

Definitely will be making more, truly would recommend anyone to try themselves :D

Can I wash a jacket after bleaching with cold water and fabric detergent?

I have finished the main design on the back, but wanted to add more designs on the sleeves. The jacket has some cat hair on it so I wanted to wash it with detergent, but I'm not sure if that will mess up the fresh bleach i just used.

Should I just do a water only rinse cycle, dry overnight, and then wash with detergent tomorrow?

Is there a way to prevent the bleach from bleeding further than I want it to? A way to create a barrier so that the bleach doesn’t lighten past the border of the image?

This is my first time making bleach art on a shirt. Already sketched the design with chalk. I always wanted to bleach paint a shirt but never got to try it until now. I have gel bleach, the shirts 100% cotton and i have a bunch of synthetic brushes ready but i need some advice. How bright can the fabric get if i use gel bleach straight from the bottle? How can i build layers with bleach diluted with different amounts of water? What can i use to neutralize the bleach after im done so it doesn't eat through the fabric? Does using an iron help to get crispier lines? How should i use it to achieve that result? Should i use a blow dryer? I have some scraps of the same fabric and i’ll patch test it too to know how to work with the bleach :) I'll share the final product when it's done!

I’m trying out bleach painting for the first time and nothing is working. I’m using 4 old 100% cotton t shirts and tried bleach, then a brand new bottle of Target brand bleach (7.5% Sodium Hypochlorite), then Clorox toilet bowl cleaner clinging bleach gel. I don’t know what else to do!
