Will Additional Washings Remove The “glow In The Dark” Aspect Of Treating A Stain With Liquid Detergent?

Over the weekend I accompanied my sons to play Glow-In-The-Dark put-put golf. I was pleased how the embroidery on my top was highlighted, but less pleasantly surprised when a coffee stain I treated on my slacks was highlighted with a clear outline where I had poured the liquid detergent.
I understand that the liquids have ingredients intended to “brighten” materials by picking up subtle ultraviolet light and “glowing” in normal light. However, I was annoyed when so much was left in the fabric.
Will additional washings remove the “glowing” remnants? Thanks.
It gave me a great idea for secret messages should I need to send them in the future…that ordinary white Tee could become spy-wear, literally!

How To Remove Hot Chocolate Stain?

Someone spilled hot choclate on my daughter’s jacket at school today. The jacket is 95% cotton, 5% spandex, and is a cream color, but has tan and brown embroidery, so it can’t be bleached. The chocolate stains are in several different places on the jacket.
I pretreated with laundry detergent and washed it, but stains were still quite noticeable. For the past 4 hours it has soaked in water with a full capful of laundry detergent and oxy clean. Stains are somewhat lighter but still noticeable. Any ideas what I can try next?
