Abstract
A detergent composition comprising from about 4% to about 70% of a surfactant, and from about 0.05% to about 10% of a dye maintenance polymer or oligomer having at least three net positive chages per molecule. The dye maintenance polymer should have a Dye Maintenance Parameter, as determined by the Dye Maintenance Parameter Test defined herein, of greater than about 0.23. Further, the dye maintenance polymer is not a polyethyleneimine or alkoxylated derivative thereof.
