Can I dye black twill pants to cover up the bleach stains?

I have bleach stains on two of my cotton twill pants. Both are all black. Will black Rit Dye cover up the bleach spots? The spots are golden in color. And can I dye two pants and a sweater in one load?|||OMG I hate it when that happens----go get a black "laundry marker" (Sharpie--must say laundry marker!), hit the bleach stains with that, THEN get MUCHO BLACK RIT DYE (more than the bottle/box says) and then do the full dye-job---add the salt, hot water, etc. and make sure you watch the washing machine timer so it can go DOUBLE the time for dye-ing!


If you do 2 pants and a sweater, make sure you triple-up on the dye.|||Dylon do a washing machine dye. Just put whole packet into drum, load trousers and wash at at least 40 degrees. Wash again when finished with detergent, remove trousers and put washing machine on hot wash with detergent to remove any dye. NB: next time you use the washer do a dark wash first just in case theres any dye left.





Good luck
