I soak my wife’s diamond, gold and platinum jewelry in a small plastic or glass container, submersed in Stain Rx,  for 20 minutes and they look new.

If I soak them overnight and rinse them off in the morning,  I’ll have to put my sunglasses on they are so bright!

If you’re facing such stains as a trail of baked beans, barbeque sauce, ketchup or other condiments down the front of a shirt or blouse, or on the lap of the pants, removing the stain shouldn’t be laborious. A few simple steps can help conquer the problem as easily as a chip-shot field goal.

Start by getting off as much of the offending food as possible. Use the edge of a spoon or a dull or butter knife to scrape off the garment. If possible, remove the garment and run cold water through the back of the garment to force the stain from the fabric from behind.

Then use Stain Rx or a liquid enzyme detergent to attack the stain.

Rinse the stain. If necessary, repeat the process until the stain is gone – or as little remains as possible. Finally, apply your normal laundry pre-wash product and let stand before laundering with an enzyme product. Even letting the garment dry outdoors in the sun can provide additional bleaching for stain removal.

If the stain remains, repeat the process – except for that part about spilling beans, sauce or ketchup. Leave those for the plate. And enjoy the rest of your Labor Day holiday. 

Summertime grilling on the barbecue makes for tasty eating. But the charcoal stains can dampen the festivities. 

Grill like a pro? Tackle your stain removal like one, too. If you get charcoal on a garment…

• Immediately remove the garment and moisten the stained area with warm water.
• Apply your stain removal product or household remedy.
• Launder according to the label – or using warm water and the correct bleach that’s safe for the fabric. If the stain persists, try rubbing alcohol – and launder again.

Remember, once laundered, you often won’t get another chance to take on the stain. If you have a stronger stain removal product, it might be wise to try it first – as opposed to a household solution or remedy.

If charcoal stains the carpet or upholstery, dampen a clean white cloth (remember, colored cloths can transfer their colors to further stain the affected area), and blot the area.

If on carpeting, sprinkle corn starch, baking soda or another absorbent product on the stain and let it stand for about an hour. This will draw the liquid from the affected area. Then vacuum the area. Next, treat the area with carpet cleaning solution or your preferred stain removal product.

For upholstery, some also use a combination of liquid dishwashing detergent and cool water (one tablespoon of detergent to two cups of water). Once your concoction is created:

• Dampen the stain with the solution, then…
• Blot the area until the solution is absorbed. Once the stain is gone…
• Use a sponge or clean cloth with cold water to draw out any residue.
• Then blot ’til dry.

Once the spots and stains are clean and dry, return to your barbecue – and enjoy yourself.

While the list of the toughest stains seems as long as our patience for fighting them is short, some stain removers can tackle stains from a wine spill, pet accident or other liquids better than others. But whether you’re using a family remedy or a store-bought product, a few tips can help ensure – or at least improve your changes for – success.

It’s important to tackle all stains with the same timeliness and attention.

1. Time is of the essence. DON’T just throw it in the laundry. And don’t set it aside to treat later. Most stains can be removed – or at least minimized – if they’re addressed as soon as possible. Allowed to linger, stains tend to set into the fabric, carpet fibers or upholstery, and can be difficult or impossible to completely remove. Spot treat it immediately, giving the product or remedy time to work. Then, wash it according to label instructions.
2. Test for color fastness. Some fabrics can be easily faded or damaged during attempts at stain removal – no matter what product is used. For carpets, test the product on a corner that it out of sight. For clothing, test low on the garment – maybe where it will be tucked in, or on the inside of the hem. If the remedy or product doesn’t change, smear, smudge or diminish the color, you’re probably safe to take on the stain itself.
3. Cold water, cold water and can we say it again cold water, use cold water to rinse off excess and to rinse out stain removal solution, then launder. Remember  HEAT sets stains, so NO heat drying until stain is completely removed, retreat the stain until  completely gone. 
4. Don’t give up. If your household remedy doesn’t seem to be working, don’t just give up. That will only give the stain a chance to set. It might be time to use a stain removal product like Stain Rx, which is formulated and designed for the job.  Have it on hand, buy it now,  and when you need it like a good friend, it will be there.

According to the website, “being a snob is not about thinking you’re better than someone else just because you happen to know more about a particular subject. It is simply being passionate about something.”

“This cleaner is really something. I moved to a house with beige carpet in some rooms. My dog had oral surgery and, naturally, got sick on the carpet. The problem was I didn’t find it until long after the fact and it was dry. After precleaning with water, the stain was so dark and I thought it would be there forever. I remembered I had this product and tried it. Oh, good heavens, the stain disappeared after one application. I never thought it would work like this. I also used it on car mats with great success. It’s really worth the investment. A real keeper!”

Some find a combination of toothpaste and Worcestershire sauce to work. But eHow.com notes that the mixture may not be as powerful as a commercial cleaner.

Stain Rx has been used for decades to remove from surfaces, clothing, carpet and upholstery stains, including those from red wine, berries, blood, iodine, grass, and fresh hair dye. It even tackles grease and sauces.

Recently we discovered that it’s also an effective solution for cleaning tarnished brass and copper household items. We tested it on copper-clad cookware, bathroom fixtures, door and cabinet hardware, and uncoated brass.

The results were as impressive as they were easy to achieve. Simply soak the item to restore it to its original shine. Depending on the severity of the tarnish, the process can take from one hour to one night.

With the wide variety of stains people encounter every day, having one product to tackle almost all of them can be a relief.
