Removing dye stains on Icarex?

Does anyone know a safe way to remove dye 'bleed' on Icarex fabric? I've just bought an HQ Tattoo Zero with some stains where the red panels have bled into the white panels ( I did know about this when I bought it). It's not too bad and I can live with it, but if there is an easy way to get rid of them it would be good.

Thanks

On Revs ...there is a specific method used for stain cleaning. Folded napkins on each side with denatured alcohol and very light cleaning of the area. You are technically removing coating from the material...like removing wax from your cars paint. Be gentle..

If it is not a bad stain and does not bother you too much..I wouldn't mess with it. Some bleeds fade over time..to the point of barely being visible at all.
