I think most of us had experience with DIY with bleach, or at the very least, know what happens when bleach gets onto dark, or colored clothes. I've seen quite a few interesting designs on clothes, where people used bleach. I even did one of my own, with some pretty nice results. There are a few things to remember while using bleach though:
- Bleach is a chemical, so be responsible while using it. This should really be obvious, but I felt the need to say it, just in case. Also, take precautions. Use a news paper, or cardboard for easy mess cleanup, and to make sure that the areas you don't want bleach on, is covered.
- When using bleach, it's best used by spraying it from a bottle, and using a stencil to guide where you spray. I used a cheap paint brush to apply bleach, and little did I know, the bleach ate my brush's bristles. There was nothing left by the time I got done with my DIY project. The moral of the story, don't use paintbrushes with bleach. The bristles will disenigrate.
- After bleaching, I would let it dry for a few hours, then I would wash it. After that, you can wear it proudly.
