The present invention relates to a stable, preferably well dispersed, more preferably translucent, and even more preferably clear, aqueous fabric color-restoring composition, fabric color-restoring methods, and articles of manufacture that use such fabric color-restoring composition. The fabric color-restoring composition comprises an effective amount of a silicone polymer fabric color-restoring agent, typically the minimum levels of fabric color-storing agent included in the composition are at least about 1.75%, preferably at least about 2.0%, more preferably at least about 2.5%, even more preferably at least about 3.0% and typically maximum levels of fabric color-restoring agent are less than about 10.0%, preferably less than about 7.0%, particularly in the range of about 3.0% to about 6.0%; and optionally, but preferably, an effective amount to increase the coefficient of static friction, of a static friction-increasing agent.
