Advantages: Removes most stains effectively
Disadvantages: Non that I know of

...I guess I'm a bit odd when it comes to clothes. They can be full of holes, but I can't stand having stains on them. I like my whites to be brilliant white and my family wear a lot of white and pale colours. My partner frequently gets oil on his clothes and my daughter, who is 14 months old, gets anything and everything on her clothes. That is why for me, Dylon Fabric Care stain removers are essential items. I have tried other stain removers such as Stain Devils, Ace Bleach and Vanish, but haven't had much success with them. There are three different stain removers available from Dylon. One is for dry clean fabrics and the other two are for washable fabrics. I only use the ones for washable fabrics, so those are the ones I'll concentrate on. I do however know that the dry clean one is for stains such as oils, make-up, shoe polish, wax... Read review

...My boyfriend is a postman and on quite a few occasions he has little accidents! The most recent one ended with blood on his shirt. He trapped his finger in a letterbox and took a chunk of skin off. It wouldn’t stop bleeding and so doing the typical man thing; he wiped it all over his shirt! He then sent me off into town to find a stain-removing product, as my normal washing powder faded it, but never removed it! I headed off to my local Wilkinson’s store and that is were I found this product. It was cheap and one of the stains it can remove that was listed was blood! **********************PACKAGING********************** This product comes in a small plastic bottle. The bottle is white in colour with a pastel green label, all the way around it. It has a green screw on lid. The label that covers this bottle gives you all... Read review

...At last my product has been accepted, only took 2 months. There’s one thing I hate to do, one thing that gives me nightmares just thinking about it…HOUSEWORK. That endless task that always needs repeating day in and day out, Polishing, cleaning hovering and tidying up what for so out rug rats can come home and mess it all up again. I am always on the look out for things to make cleaning the house easier. This product at the time was new <> Oxy Magic spray on multi purpose stain remover <> This comes in a trigger bottle. The bottle is clear light blue plastic, the liquid looks just like water. The product description says this removes stains, dirt and odours from a range of laundry and household items. This comes with lots of information and directions on how to use. Once shaken the liquid does foam up a little, when sprayed... Read review

...To all you guys and gals out there who think a lemon is just for slicing and putting in your drink, think again. A lemon has many uses:- 1. add to your drinks 2. removing tea stains from cups 3. removing stubborn marks from enamel surfaces (baths, sinks, toilets) 4. removes the smell of fish from many surfaces (chopping boards, skin, utensils) To remove tea stains from cups simply use a slice of lemon and scrub your cup. This should work instantly, but for all those stubborn stains out there you may need to scrub a little harder. the same principles work on enamel surfaces, though be warned, lemon is not an anti-bacterial agent. Do you like fish a lot? Dont like the smell lingering in your kitchen. Simply slice a lemon and rub onto anything thast has touched the fish. this will get rid of (not cover up... Read review

...Whilst on the subject of washing horses, stain remover is a useful thing to have in the tack room. The review is for stain remover and coat shine, both of which I have used though the former more than the latter. Having a grey, I would not be without stain remover. What is Stain Remover? * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Stain remover is something that you spray onto a stain on the horses coat, leave for a few minutes and then sponge off. When horses roll, they roll in the grass, even if it is not muddy and end up with green stains on them which are only visible when they are grey. These stains are not easy to remove, even when bathing them and using shampoo. The other type of stain that also shows up more on a grey are from droppings. For some reason, when they are in their stable, they chose to lie in their droppings even... Read review

...Dylon, who have been in business for years and years,know a heck of a lot about fabric care. They currently export their various products to more than 60 countries world wide and you can find out a great deal about them by going to their interesting web site www.dylon.co.uk. I am familiar with Dylon since boyhood when I used their famous dyes to dye some white shirts green and white for the football team that I founded.

...I want to help fellow ciao users to remove stains with little cash, and these are my 10 stain removal ways without needing to buy stain removal products! So heres your way to save money and remove those stains.... I have become quite the expert on stain removal, from sources mainly from family advice. Also my extreme CLUMSINESS lead to me learning new removal techniques along the way.. Here are all the removal techniques i know; 1) Remove marker pen marks (includes biros, fountain pens etc) - if a ink eraser doesnt work, then use nail polish remover with a swab stick. It works a treat! For instance, on my digital camera and on my 7210 phone i freaked as my little cousin decided to draw a face on my phone, and i smudged biro ink on my camera. All it took was a dip of a q-tip in nail polish remover and a light brush across... Read review

...it took to get the tiling done in the first place it would undoubtedly take twice as long to get the carpet cleaning issue sorted out and was easier to do the job myself. I've tried many different stain removal products in the past, some with good results and others which seemed like a waste of time, but it was the 1001 Troubleshooter that caught my attention on the store shelves with it's promise of added odour neutralising abilities included in it's "Improved Formula" after recently potty training my little girl it seemed a good idea to properly freshen up the carpets, I could never quite shake the feeling that the house might smell a little bit like her accidents despite all my attempts at the time to mop up any messes, so with stain removal and odour neutralising capabilities it seemed like the perfect product. 1001 products are un...

Advantages: Removed My Stain So It Works
Disadvantages: Quite Expensive

...Well I woke up this morning feeling slightly hung over from last night and my flat looked like a bombsite. After laying in bed with one eye half open for about an hour I eventually managed to motivate myself and got out bed. A full black refuse bag of rubbish later and a quick run round with the vacuum cleaner and things were starting to look a little bit better, but there was something still troubling me. A dark stain had appeared in the middle of my bedroom carpet. What it was or where it had come from I have no idea but rubbing it with hot soapy water did nothing to remove it, in fact it actually things worse and rubbed the stain further into my carpet. I rummaged around at the back of my kitchen cupboard to see if I possessed anything that was worth a try at removing this stain and I found a bottle of Clorox Oxi Magic Multi... Read review

...on the coffee table, and what did I do, I knocked over my glass of red wine!!! (by the way, my glasses can hold over half a bottle of red wine!!). Oh no, the wine didn't just fall nicely, it flew across the room, I had a red wine mess on the carpet which covered about 3 metres long, not to mention half the walls!! Panic set in!! I rushed down to the local shop, and brought anything and everything, some more kitchen towels, a couple of bottles of cheap white wine (no not for me to drink!!!) and 1001 stain remover! Having never used this stain remover before, I was very apprehensive about using it, would it bleach the carpet etc!! remember this isn't my house!!!! ***Presentation / Packaging *** The bottle comes in a nice bright yellow, 500ml spray bottle, bright blue label with 1001 written in yellow!!! and a nice blue spray gun...
