I can't believe how well this works
My kids wear school uniforms (khakis and polos), and they come home every day with oily black marks all over their clothes from the recycled tire pieces used as a base on their playground. Additionally, they have the normal kid stains: food, paint, dirt, etc. I've never used a stain remover before but figured that would be cheaper than continuing to throw away clothes.<br /><br />This arrived in the mail yesterday, and as luck would have it (haha!), my daughter came home in khakis completely covered in black marks, so I got to test it right away. I followed the directions on the back of the bottle and treated the entire week's worth of uniform clothes (so some stains had had a chance to set in). After one round through the washer, about 90% of the stains were gone. I did a second treatment on a few spots and rewashed everything, and those khakis I would have otherwise thrown out were completely stain-free when I removed them from the washer. There was also a white shirt from earlier in the week that had gotten paint on it in art class, and that came out completely, too. The only stains that didn't come out were a spot that looked like it may have been from a Sharpie and a grass stain; honestly, though, these could have already gone through the laundry once before and set in, so I can't say for sure that this wouldn't have worked on them.<br /><br />I didn't notice this anywhere in the description, but this product does have a slight smell, kind of like baby powder. Also, it leaves a soapy residue on anything you spray it on, and clothes required extra rinses to come clean.<br /><br />Overall, I'm amazed at how this took really tough stains out of clothes, and I am so glad to have found something that will save us from having to constantly replace clothing. Because I went through about two-thirds of a bottle on a single load, I think I'll be buying this at Target from now on since their website has it much cheaper.
