    Patent number: 5310409
    Abstract: A discrete, well defined pattern is produced on colored fabric by applying to the desired area of the fabric a viscous mixture of fine mineral particles, water and one or more bleaching agents. The viscous mixture remains confined to the designated area and permeates the fabric. After a controlled, finite period of time, the mixture is rinsed away, leaving a well defined area from which the fabric coloration has been removed.
