This one warns NOT to use phosphate based detergent to wash your bills or starch to make them crisp since both can give a false positive when testing for counterfeit bills!

Any ideas about getting some nasty purple dye off of them? Somehow I have a sack of bills that are all covered in purple dye. And my hands too.
