                                               GENERAL QUESTIONS

Q.  
Can I use Amodex on old stains?
A.   Yes, our customers tell us they have great success removing old stains
       (even when they don't know what caused the stain). Simply apply
        Amodex
, rub in well and allow to sit overnight, then rinse or toss into
       a regular laundry load.

Q.   Can I use Amodex as a spotter?
A.   Certainly. Pretreat the stain with Amodex (even if you aren't sure what
      caused it), rub in well, then launder or rinse.

Q.   Is Amodex only for fabrics?
A.   No, in addition to garments, Amodex is safe to use on upholstery,
      carpeting, draperies, and surfaces such as formica and wood.

Q.   Is Amodex safe to use on dry cleanable garments or delicate washables?
A.   Absolutely! Amodex's unusual soap formula is safe to use on most dry
      cleanable fabrics such as cashmere, wool and silk. Simply apply Amodex
      to the stain, rub in well, rinse and airdry.

Q.   Will Amodex remove the fabric color?
A.   No, Amodex should not remove the color. We do advise that you test
      your fabric for colorfastness as some fabric dyes are less stable.

Q.   What should I do if the stained area yellowed after using Amodex?
A.   Since Amodex is a soap formula, it must be rinsed. It's sometimes difficult
      to tell if you've thoroughly rinsed treated areas such as upholstery or
      carpeting. Yellowing is simply dried Amodex residue. Rerinse the area and
      the yellowing will disappear.

Q.   Is Amodex strictly for ink?
A.   Amodex successfully removes both water-based (wine, coffee, tea, etc)
      and greasy stains (salad dressing, mustard, balsamic vinegar) and even
      curry! The only stains we know Amodex will not remove are rust and
      mildew.

Q.   I''m doing the laundry and find a stain on my garment, but I don't know
      what caused the stain. Can I still use Amodex?
A.   Sure! Many of the stains on our removal list came from customer success          stories. Our motto for stain removal is, "When in doubt, try it out!"

Q.   What should I do if I get a stain at work, in a restaurant, or elsewhere?
A.   Nothing, don't even apply water which sometimes sets a stain. Amodex will
      remove stains that have been there for weeks provided nothing else was           applied.

Q.  After I've used Amodex should I launder the garment separately?
A.  No, you can launder any Amodex-treated garments in a regular laundry
     load. We recommend using warm or cold water and your everyday
     detergent.

Q.  When I apply Amodex to a berry stain, the stain turns blue. What do I do?
A.  The color change is simply a reaction to the berry enzymes. Just rub the           Amodex well into the stain and it will disappear.

Q.   Should I completely remove the stain before I launder the garment?
A.   No, just rub the Amodex until the stain lightens significantly. Laundering
      will remove the residue. For grass stains, simply rub Amodex in enough
      to break down the stain. Laundering will finish the job!
