Why does a new pair of jeans leave blue marks on a white phone case?

Our answer

New denim may transfer indigo dye to light objects; wash separately and use a darker phone case until colour transfer decreases.

Why this approach makes sense

Materials, cleaning instructions and equipment design vary. Pick a reversible approach that fits the exact surface or appliance.

Before you try it

Check the model instructions and test on a small area before committing to a permanent change.
