I used chlorine bleach on white clothes that were supposed to be washed with non-chlorine bleach. They turned yellow. How do you make them white again?

Try using oxy clean powder this may work. I tried oycy clean and it did not work. I used "YELLOW OUT" It is a powder that comes in a plastic 1 lb. 2 oz. container. Most likely I bought it at Walmart, not sure. It worked on a cotton-polyester top that I bleached by mistake, which then turned it a tannish/yellow. I followed the directions on the back of the YELLOW OUT container; soak in a gallon of water with 1/2 cup of YELLOW OUT for 20 minutes and then wash with detergent not containing any peroxide or bleach (use color safe detergent) The top came out bright white!

NO! You are supposed to keep your tattoo out of water (besides quick showers + cleanings) for 2-3 weeks while it heals, especially chlorine! Chlorine can damage the color of the tattoo. You've seen what Clorox bleach does to clothes... imagine that's your tattoo!
When to use chlorine bleach and when to use non chlorine bleach?
When doing laundry, chlorine bleach is used for white clothing only. Non-chlorine bleach is used for other color-safe clothing. Chlorine bleach should always be diluted and never put directly on the clothing; it will weaken the fibers. Chlorine bleach can also be used in the home to sanitize and clean. Be sure to use only on color-safe, non-porous items, such as a toilet or bathtub. Wear gloves when using and always ventilate the room you are in. Also, avoid getting any on your clothes as even one drop will permenantly stain.
