How to Bleach Pants

Bleaching your pants gives them a distinctive look and coloration. To bleach your pants, you will need some protective gloves, bleach, and a washing machine. Follow these steps for the best results:

1. Check the label on your pants to determine what fabric they are made of. Not all fabrics can be bleached safely, so make sure your fabric is suitable before proceeding.
2. Put on the protective gloves before you start. Mix 1/4 of a cup of bleach per gallon of water. Fill your washing machine with the bleach-water mix.
3. Add your pants to the mix and let them soak for between 5 and 15 minutes. Avoid letting them soak for too long or the bleach may damage the fabric.
4. Wash the pants with regular detergent. Use the cold water setting and keep the cycle short.
5. Remove the pants from the washing machine and allow them to air-dry.

When you are done, your pants should be bleached to the desired color. Be sure to never mix bleach with other cleaning chemicals as this can result in toxic fumes.
