| 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 air dry. |
| 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. Re-rinse 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! |
| Q. | I know Amodex must be rinsed. How do I avoid leaving a watermark on fine fabric? |
| A. | After rinsing the area, we recommend drying the fabric with a hair dryer. Continue gently rubbing the area with your finger nail to evenly distribute the heat. |
| Q. | Will Amodex remove color run in the laundry? |
| A. | Yes, when color runs from a garment on to other clothing, apply Amodex liberally to the fabric while it is still wet. DO NOT DRY THE GARMENTS! Rub in well until the stains lighten, then re-launder. |
| Q. | I know Amodex is a non-toxic, liquid soap formula but how can I get a copy of your MSDS? |
| A. | For your convenience, simply click here for our MSDS. |
