A question

Ok, I've got this recipe, and I'd like to know what people think.

INGREDIENTS (SERVES ONE)

1 plain black tee-shirt (extra-large for preference)
1 bottle of domestic bleach
1 roll of industrial masking tape

Cover up most of the front of the tee-shirt with the masking tape, leaving only an area spelling out a short but inoffensive word - "RAGE" or "TRASH" or something similar.

Making sure that the back of the tee-shirt is appropriately protected, pour bleach to excess over the front of the tee-shirt. Wait a sensible length of time.

Remove the masking tape to reveal the word you've bleached into the tee-shirt. Wash tee-shirt to remove last traces of bleach. Wear to social events.

Would this work?

I use bleach for anti-tie-dye and it works fine - if you want letters you'd need to put something between the layers to stop it soaking through and I'd agree with the paint it on rather than soak it tip too.
