Maybe gel bleach would work well with your foam stamps? They look like they need a thicker medium that will stick to the foam, so the gel might work?

I had no idea bleach can go bad! 😮 I learned something new today
So my wife and I run a dye studio, and she dyes yarn and fabric for a living. With dyeing - always scour first - this removes any excess oils, waxes, or other things on the fabric used when finishing it. 2nd when you're trying to get crisp prints with dyes, you need to thicken the dye to make sure it's not just absorbed by the fabric and bleeds out, imagine it being the consistency of screen printing ink. You can do this two ways, either stamp the thickened dye, or stamp a resist and then emersion dye the fabric (think of processes like batik). You can thicken most dyes with things like agar agar but I'm not sure how bleach will react to that. Other methods would be creating a resist by folding and clamping the fabric between blocks, look up shibori and itajime methods. Edit - It just occurred to me that the "no splash" bleach is already thickened. I'm guessing that would work better for the stamps and stencils.

I also noticed that for the rubber stamps in the videos they were watching all had thin lines, whereas the ones they were using were solid shapes. I don't know how much of a difference it would make, if any, but I feel like that might be why the bleach was kinda beading up and just rolling off. Edit: Had paused halfway through the video before they got new bleach and saw the updated results.

oooh, you know, bleach gel is a product, for heavy duty toilet cleaning, but bleach is bleach, right? Maybe the bleach gel would give crisper lines?

Just wanted to say that you perfected the sponsor part of your videos. I always skip that part of the video unless it's your videos because you make it unique and actually entertaining. I love how much effort and time you put into it. I wish all the advertisement in the media was at least half as good as yours is.

So I helped my mom learn a version of this technique to teach it to her adult ESL class. Here’s some stuff we learned via trial and error (some things you mentioned in your video but I wanted to repeat them for emphasis): 1) definitely use the highest cotton percentage you can. Other materials either turned a weird blue-gray or didn’t change at all 2) we put our 50/50 bleach solution in spray bottles and then used some chipboard shapes/ metal shapes that we got from the dollar store as a sort of reverse stencil 3) if you want to do the spray bottle method, make sure to turn the spray nozzle to as fine a mist as you can, and make sure to spray from above and not at an angle because then it gets under the stencil edge. also watch out for drips! 4) use hydrogen peroxide to neutralize the bleach when it reaches the shade you want it to be (we put the hydrogen peroxide in spray bottles that looked different from the bleach bottles so we didn’t mix them up) 5) we rinsed our shirts with water and then hung them to dry. we discovered that hanging them in the sun made the bleach lighten more even after hydrogen peroxide so keep that in mind 6) make sure you dry the shapes off with a paper towel before you move them or they’ll spill more bleach on your shirt 7) we were making our shirts for Halloween and loved the results. It was really easy to find seasonal shapes at the dollar stores where we live but you can also get some online. Also the black shirts with orange bleaching looked very spooky and cool 8) using sharpies to fix our mistakes was so easy and worked very well Sorry for the novel! I just love this technique.

Mixing bleach and hydrogen peroxide can be dangerous as reaction produces oxygen, avoid mixing larger quantities near sources of ignition :D mixing bleach with many household items can be quite dangerous.
Sorry. I'm laughing so hard at the Samsung washer remix 😂 that was iconic
My favorite bleach art hack is filling a watercolor brush pen blender with your bleach/water ratio and painting (or filling in more ornate stencils) with them.
12:03 made me so happy when I realized it's the washer done song 😂 my brain was like I know this, that's not an Evan and katelyn song. Animal crossing? What? Then oh yeah. It's the song of clean laundry that I've been hearing for literally 7 years. Come on brain 😂
Evan turning the C into a D at 25:55 and then Katelyn's continued laughter off screen has me DYING 😂😂
I love that your drier plays Erlkönig, such dramatic music for such a banal task (I hate laundry)
An all footprint bag would make a great TOE-te, am I right?
You guys should have tried the stamps with toilet bowl bleach, the GEL stuff. It works, cross my heart

My mom has a friend who's made and sold clothes with bleach designs for years and she told us the trick is to use hair bleach. It's a lot thicker so it holds the shape better on fabric, doesn't spread under stencils, and sticks to stamps really well.
17:47 the editing on the bleach tote bag mini song segment was AMAZING XD 26:40 Oml the “Dat Dad” section made me laugh so much 🤣🤣🤣🤣 THE CAT DAD HAT IS AMAZING OMG
around 4:13- I wonder if leaving the clothes slightly damp would actually make the clothes take the bleach better- you could probably go a bit over without having it bleed as much cause the fabric is already semisaturated with water?
I sometimes draw on tshirts with bleach using a dried or used up marker that I soak in 100% bleach, and it's worked well for me, just have to wash the shirt immediatley after you are done drawing
I have the same brand of washing machine and had this video playing in the background. Hearing the Samsung end wash/dry music playing definitely had me checking to see why my machine was finishing a cycle I didn't start. 😂
DAT DAD really got me omg lmaooo
My washing machine plays that jolly tune too. I made up lyrics for it and sing it every time I do laundry. My 7 year old daughter (who LOVES your channel) was singing to your washing machine too tonight. 😂 ❤
the cat face look sooo sooo cute it just need some ears and it will be perfect i think you should get some of the clothes you sell and make some diy ones and sell them as limited additions it will be the cutest thing ever
Nighthawkinlight has a really cool video on using butcher paper to create layered designs. That seems like a fun next level to the bleach game
Evans "Words Are Hard" shirt being used as the testing canvas to save a stream after four years of use is poetic tbh.
I’m up at night after my shift waiting for my uniform to be done in the wash since I need it for my double tomorrow, the little ding of their washer/dryer literally reminded me I need to switch them before I go to bed so thank you Evan and Katelyn
The stream was pure hilarious chaos, but the video that came from it is adorable.
I feel like the "reject" test shirt can be excellent fodder for the kind of T-shirt transformation project that involves strategic cutting, tying, maybe safety pins, etc.
The real journey is not the friendships we made, but the clothes we destroyed along the way 💜 (As a 20+ year tie-dye veteran I honestly love how most of these turned out, looking forward to whatever you bleach next!)
I love the cat dad hat - the font looks just like the "you wouldn't steal a car" adverts from DVDs
Such a happy Couple... love to see this..
Something I've learned for metal stamping is when you're trying to center text, find the middle letter and work your way out from there instead of stamping like you're writing.
9:24 after seeing Evan’s adorable little cat stamps, I was so upset they weren’t used on the CAT DAT HAT at 27:05
For stenciling, the best results I've seen come from using freezer paper for the stencil because it can be temporarily ironed onto the material, so it's less likely to let the bleach under the edges of the stencil, and then you use a spray bottle to mist the bleach on lightly so it doesn't soak through the material under the stencil anyway.
I thought of your bleach projects and thought...maybe you could use thick it to the bleach and try it this way? Designs might come out sharper and brighter? Perhaps worth a try 🎉
Omg the Samsung washer and dryer jingle 😂 I whipped my head over to my TV so fast when i heard that tune haha! This jingle haunts me in my dreams I swear LOL I wish I can change it!!
I'm clipping "How can I do that, people inside my head?" And showing my therapist 😂
The paw print shirt gives such marauder's map! It would've been perfect left with just the pocket, yes lol
Also there is the splashless bleach out there that’s thicker and more gel like that would probably work best for the stamping 👍🏻
Helllooo everyone ❤ EDIT: "stripes across the butt" I'm dying here 😂 not that type of channel! All hail the Cat Dad!

moar bleach! love to see these, they're so fun!! perhaps more colors? I'm always fascinated to see what colored shirts/fabric bleaches to!! maybe some like purples and navys? bleach tie-dye is always So Cool!!
That ad read was legendary.
if yall bleach again yall should try putting a lil line of the teeny tiny cats along the bottom of the shirt! :3 - greetings from poland :) p.s. i love ur channel(s) so much! you guys are my comfort youtubers :D
Mid pandemic we had to mix bleach in spray bottles for cleaning covid testing areas and the bleach had to be mixed fresh daily in addition to learning that bottled bleach can expire in less than 30 days after opening.
Evan turning the C into a D on the hat had me laughing so hard. 😂
Whomever edited this video was on point. The references get me every time
The best stamps will probably be wooden. Silicone or plastic based stamps do not lend themelves well to wetting with high water content dyes/paints because of water's surface tension.
Those all turned out so awesome!!! Excellent journey!
I like the brackets on on the chaos shorts, a happy accident. And I didn't even notice the cat shirt is off center. I don't see it, I just see cute cat ❤😊

Hey, just a suggestion...have you considered trying these hacks on shorts or maybe even possibly you could try it on shorts?
Yesss another Evan and Katelyn video!
it's the gingerbread house silicon mats but in reverse. i love it.
Idea for the stencils, what if you use a flat foam stamp on top of the stencil? Do it real quick like so it doesn't bleed underneath
I love Evan’s chaos laugh when the bleach final starts working 😂😂😂
Awesome timing! I've been wanting to get a shirt from my gym and bleach-dye it. Im obsessed with the idea of tie-dye Tuesday and I work at the same gym I go to.
Would love to see you applying these stamping techniques to color dye tie!! Also there are some really incredible patterns like geometric that people do!!!❤
I've done the bleach method of making shirts, but I used vinyl cut with a cricut to make designs.
That Chaos Cat shirt is so cute! My Muggsi Blanche isn't exactly a chaos cat but she is kinda a firecracker and a real cutie.
I love Katelyns out fit she did soo good
I saw the uncut of that and it was utter chaos when they realized they had not washed the clothing before
25:34 I have both a cat and a dog, and I’m a woman so I’m not the dad, but I still got a hoodie where it says “The Dogfather” in the godfather font. It’s amazing
When you were talking about the bleach running off of the foam stamp, my brain suggested thick-it with the bleach, but that's probably an extremely bad idea.
Love the side effect sounds with the sponges.
love that you put in the tune that Samsung uses on their washers, called "die forelle"!
I love the chaos cat shirt! 💛

I have a friend who has done a few shirts for family gatherings (reunion type events) and she swears by 100% bleach and acrylic stamps. I've never actually tried it myself, it's just a thought.
26:00 As his shirt says, "words are HARD"
i saw in the store a "clean stains from your laundry" pen that i suspect might have bleach in it. that might be fun to draw with!! like a bleach pen and you draw on the shirt!!
Ya'll should do a "science" video testing different types of bleach. There's a thicker bleach (splash-free), bleach gel (Clorox pens), hair bleach and you could try mixing liquid bleach with different thickeners. Then see which works best for the different methods.
