Use your bleach dispenser — it delays the addition of the bleach so the detergent brighteners have a chance to deposit on the fabrics.

Again, this allows the detergent ingredients to begin working and the brighteners to deposit themselves on the fabric.

Remove the stain and not the color with Clorox 2 for Colors Stain Remover and Color Brightener. This color-safe formula removes 50% more stains than detergent alone with pretreating and it helps keep clothes looking newer, longer.
Perfect color brightener
I live using this color safe bleach. I have clothe many that contain some areas of white but other areas colored. the white tends to get dingy but Clorox helps to bring the white back to bright!
CHEMICAL BURNS
I do not have sensitive skin at allll, so I was very surprised (& in some serious pain) when I broke out in to severe chemical burns when exposed to this product. Be careful! Would not recommend as any product that can eat away at skin probably shouldn’t be on our bodies at all.
Useless
The powder version Clorox 2 of years ago worked great. The current Clorox 2 Liquid does not remove ANY stain. Don't waste your money buying this current product!

Didn't work
I had about 7 shirts with small drops off coffee stains. I used this product and it didn't work. It's hard to believe that others had great success including the person who wrote that it removed blood. Makes me find these reviews suspicious.
