Whether your kids are babies, teens or somewhere in between, laundry stains are parts of all stages of life. Sometimes, I miss the seemingly easy stains of spilled milk and baby burp-ups. These days, my tween daughter and teen son make stains that challenge my laundry capabilities.
Thank goodness for the OxiClean™ line of products to help me tackle nearly all the stains they can come up with. Recently, my daughter was ecstatic to find this jacket on sale at her favorite store. I was a bit concerned about the light color and told her she would need to be careful about getting it dirty.
Well, one day at camp and her sleeves were a mess. She was pretty upset. We used OxiClean™ Max Force™ Stain Remover Spray to tackle the stains.
Max Force™ Spray Instructions:
Test in an inconspicuous area prior to use. Can be used on all washable whites and colored fabrics. (Some colored fabrics may be prone to color change.) For fabrics that are prone to color change, do not let stand longer than 5 minutes. Treat now and wash later- up to 7 days before washing. Do not use on silk, wool, leather and fabrics labeled dry-clean only.
Pre-treat tough clothing stains
Shake before use.
1. Spray directly onto the spot or stain until saturated.
2. Let stand for 5 minutes or up to a week, depending on the severity of the stain.
3. Wash with detergent in the warmest water the fabric will accept.
She was so excited when the stains came out. Whew! Tragedy averted.
The very next day, my son bit into a hot dog and dripped ketchup down the front of his favorite shirt. For this stain, I used the OxiClean™ Max Force™ Gel Stick Pre-Treater. I already had a load in the laundry so I needed to wait until the next load to get the shirt clean.
Luckily, the Max Force™ Gel Stick Pre-Treater is made for just such an occasion. It’s easy to apply and you can leave it on a stain for up to a week before putting it in the laundry.
Max Force™ Gel Stick Instructions
Test in an inconspicuous area prior to use. Can be used on all washable whites and colored fabrics. (Some colored fabrics may be prone to color change.) For all these fabrics, do not let product stand for more than 5 minutes. Treat now and wash later- up to 7 days before washing. Do not use on silk, wool, leather and fabrics labeled dry cleaning only.
Pre-treat tough clothing stains
1. Place Gel Stick directly onto the stain, press down to dispense gel and gently rub into fabric. (For the 1st use, multiple dabs may be needed.)
2. Let stand for 5 minutes or up to a week, depending on the severity of the stain.
3. Wash with detergent in the warmest water the garment will accept.
I was thoroughly impressed that this stain came out and that the color remained completely intact. My son was happy too!
My daughter has reached a stage in life where she is having fun experimenting with her look. The current trend with her friends is dip-dying your hair in a fruit punch powder/hot water solution. Her hair looked great, but when she wore one of her favorite shirts, the top turned pink.
For this stain, I decided to try the OxiClean™ Max Force™ Foam. I was really nervous that this stain would not come out. I let the foam set in overnight before washing the shirt.
Max Force™ Foam Instructions:
Test first in an inconspicuous area prior to use. Can be used on all washable whites and colored fabrics (some colored fabrics may be prone to color change). For fabrics that are prone to color change, do not let stand for longer than 5 minutes. Treat now and wash later- up to 7 days before washing. Do not use on silk, wool, leather and fabrics labeled dry clean only.
1) Pump directly onto the spot or stain and rub gently into fabric.
2) Let stand 5 minutes to up to a week depending on the severity of the stain.
3) Wash with detergent in the warmest water the fabric will accept. For best results: Treat stains with OxiClean™ Max Force™ Foam Laundry Stain Remover while they are fresh, or as soon as possible. For set-in stains, allow foam to penetrate overnight, or up to a week. I was so impressed by the results.
I’ve been an OxiClean™ customer for a while and I’m so excited to add these products to my stain-fighting arsenal. I love that these products provide easy solutions for a wide variety of stains for all stages of life.
What are your toughest stains?
My touch stains are from the foods that I eat as I don’t yet have kids but its good to have a stain remover which is as good to remove all the stains.
Nothing worse than a stain ruining your favourite piece of clothing
Oxi Clean is such a great brand. It has been our go to stain remover for years.
These products look really helpful. We deal with a lot of dirt and grass stains. Will have to try this.
I love me some Oxiclean! I work at a hospital and come home with some crazy stains on my scrubs and this has saved many a pair of scrubs for me!!
That’s important so you don’t need to buy new scrubs all the time.
Oxiclean is a big part of my laundry routine. It works effectively specially on my son’s gootball uniforms.
Never heard of gootball. LOL!
Looks like with this product, it makes it all easy to remove stains. I wish we have those here.
Marker and pen stains give me trouble to remove. Gonna try Oxiclean next time it happens.
I need to try this! I have heard of Oxi Clean before but I have never used it before.
I bet you are going to love it!
Oxi-Clean really does do the trick. It’s incredibly handy to have some around. Grass and mud stains are pretty common here.
You would think my son rolled in mud daily.
I’ve used this plenty of times! It works really well!
I love Oxiclean for stains. It’s often the only thing that works on the stains my family manages to make on their clothing.
My kids’ laundry always need some strong stain fighters. I love Oxi clean because it works so well and it’s always so easy to find! Thanks for these tips.
OMG YES! I love me some Oxi Clean. I use it on everything. Having 2 kids it is so tough getting out these stains. It was so hard finding something that works and this WORKS! Thanks for the post.
I swear by Oxi Clean, but I usually get a big tub of the powder. I need to try this gel stick situation, that might work even better for the toddler stains I have to get out.
I like the foam too. Sometimes it’s easier to put a few squirts in a small load of laundry.
I’ve seen this on the store shelf before but never tried it. After reading of the ways it worked for your family, I am going to have to give it a try!
My older son and his clothing come home from work absolutely grimy. This product line seems as though it would be able to tackle even his work clothes. I love that you can wait from 5 minutes up to a week before laundering — what a time saver! I can treat his clothing and toss in the hamper without having to worry about the grime setting in even more while I wait to wash.
My younger son is a toddler — aka a magnet for messes 🙂
Definitely worth trying!
I love the chance to stain treat and wait too.
My daughter has 4 boys and she always has OxiClean on hand to clean their tough stains and all their sports uniforms. OxiClean is amazing!
Right? It’s a dream for my son’s soccer uniform.
I have tried this before and have loved the results. This really does an amazing job at stain fighting. I actually need to pick up some more as we love using it in our home!
I was really impressed by the new products in the OxiClean line that I had not tried before.
Oh wow what a fantastic range of products, I am going to have to look out for these myself when I am next in the shops as I am always suffering with stains on things.
