I was told that when you starch your BDU's, it removes some of their infared-diluting capabilities, or some **** like that. I don't know for sure. Ask one of the higher-speed members of the site.

by washing clothing with an agent that contains bleach the clothing will become more visible by the use of NVD.

Bleaching gives the clothing a good UV shine :)
You can buy agents from companies like Cabelas intended to "retro" the clothing e.g. removing the "UV shine" and restore the IR/UV "filtering"

Didn't find it on cabelas.com but they used to have it, maybe they've stopped selling it.
