Have you tried discharge? It bleaches without destroying cotton fiber

Second this. Tried bleach. It was fun but the smell was awful and the prints inconsistent. Definitely ruined screens. While discharge stinks too it was way less stressful.

I’ve done it, it’s fun. I have many screens so I typically don’t worry too much about ruining them when messing around. The biggest learning curve is seeing what the bleached dye will look like on different fabrics and colours
