Default what is the chemical for burn out t-shirts
I want to make my own "Burn-Out T-shirts" and I'm curious if anyone has any idea what chemical is used in this process? It's obviously something that eats away the cotton... but I am at an utter loss? Can anyone help?

Thanks!

heh, I guess I'm more curious as to whether it is a sort of "cocktail" or a single chemical that i can pick up at the hardware store.... or is it utterly specialized? how caustic is it, etc...

I've been looking around at various sites, and the pricing on these shirts is outrageous— especially considering you're effectively buying half a shirt! lol...

well hopefully someone will know!
