Set in stain on brown shirts?

Question

I recently bought a brown shirt and was extra careful not to stain it, after I washed it I found a set in orange stain the kind that happens when bleach hits a brown cloth. Another family member had the same problem before and their brown shirt was also ruined from a set in orange stain. Their were no stains on it until we washed the clothes. What I want to know is what's causing this? I don't want another brown shirt ruined. And can I get this stain out? We use gain and tide detergent.

Answer 1

if you had washed whites before and then the brown shirt it could explain it. Also if you wash you should start filling the machine a bit and then let the detergent dissolve and then add your clothes. Sometimes if a clump of detergent build it will leave a stain or remove the color. Sadly your new shirt is ruined

Answer 2

Your best bet is too get a brown dye to match the color, chances are its a patterned shirt, so its a case if YOU cant get the stain out its only ganna come out with a dye wash. You willing 4 that?

P.S I know how ya feel, but it might come good after the dye wash, mine did
