6/26/11

    Merry Sunday, everyone! I hope you all are having a superb weekend! The weekend in my house means laundry day, and I have to confess our family is hard on clothes! So, I've become quite good at getting stains out. So much so that my hubs calls me the queen of stains, and my daughter calls me Wonder Woman. There isn't a stain out there that scares me!



    So, here's a trick I thought up yesterday. My husband had this HUGE dark looking circle of who knows what on an AWESOME new t shirt that I'd gotten him. Shout hadn't worked very well before, not that it usually does on stubborn stains, so I had to come up with something else. I looked at the stain, and saw that it looked like a food grease stain or something like that. Then, I saw the KA-BOOM sitting on the shelf. AHA, "I yelled,"! (Yes, I actually yelled, AHA!) and I sprayed the heck out of that spot! Do you know what happened next? I had to put it in the dryer to see if the stain had come out. It's a dark green shirt, and the stain area was hard to see when wet. THEN, I put it in the dryer. When I pulled it out of the dryer, THE STAIN WAS GONE! Whoopee! So, the moral of this long and drawn out tip is to use a kitchen degreasing cleaner on stubborn grease-like stains. I will warn you, as every cleaning product does, to test it on part of your clothes to make sure it doesn't ruin anything. I just took a chance cause it had already been washed and dried several times, to that stain was set in anyway. Good luck!
