How to Bleach Levi Jeans
Blue jeans fade after several washes, but they never get as light as what they would if bleached. The tone to which you bleach the Levi jean determines how much of the chlorine you add. Using a small amount of bleach, looking at your pants and then adding more bleach if needed is more effective than adding lots of bleach and then realizing the pants are too light. The water temperature should be between 110 and 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Does this Spark an idea?
