For this reason we can not recommend it for your particular application. It would probably do a good job, but due to the nature of the stain we can't guarantee success. Most time this cleaner will remove stains that other cleaners have no chance with. A rust stain will be one of the hardest to deal with, but it is not necessarily impossible.

Some of the results you get from Quick n Brite seem like a miracle, but thats just because it is a really efficient cleaner. It works simply by breaking apart organic stains and build-up. It then floats it just off the affected surface so it is easy to remove. From the sound of your story, Q&B would work great. Just add some of the <strong><a href="http://www.simplygoodstuff.com/quicknbrite_liquid.htm" rel="nofollow">liquid </a></strong>to water and let the hat soak over night. The next day you can either launder or rinse clean. Its less of a miracle product, and more just the right product for the job.

I have a dark blue cap with white embroidered words, and the sweat stain has bleached out the cap in some areas. Will this work for such a thing ? I have already used detergent to wash out the stain, but upon soaking, it seemed to have disappeared, but when i wrung out the water for it to dry, the stain re-emerged to the eye... not sure if this would work.

This discoloration is most likely all sweat, and can be easily taken out of the fabric. For your situation it will be best to soak the whole garment since the areas of staining are so large. Simply fill a bucket or sink with hot water, and add Quick n Brite to it. Make sure the cleaner is fully mixed with the water and then place the gi in to sit over night. If the stains are really bad you can apply some Q&B directly to the stains before soaking. Once it has soaked over night, just launder as usual and the stains should be removed. If there are still areas of stain left, repeat this process, but definitely apply paste to the fabric the second time prior to soaking. We also carry an all-natural <strong><a href="http://www.simplygoodstuff.com/washit_colorbooster.html" rel="nofollow">bleach alternative </a></strong>that can be used to whiten whites and brighten brights without the need for harmful bleach. It is an all natural detergent booster and stain fighter. This would be used to keep your gi looking great after quick n brite removes the stains.

Also without seeing it or the orangish stain it is hard to determine, without a doubt what actually caused them. There is a definite possibility of a chemical reaction being the cause. If it is indeed a sweat stain, Quick n Brite will clean it for sure. Washed in deodorant stains are a bit harder, but will be removed with several applications too. The other stain could go either way, but without seeing it we can't say for sure. In general, Quick n Brite removes stains from clothing that nothing else even comes close with. You never run any risk of damage, so it can't hurt to try it rather than tossing out an expensive article of clothing. Sometimes a white stain is caused by deodorant and not the sweat itself.

It will also work well for set in stains. It doesn't matter what you have tried to use in the past, or even if it a washed in stain. The purple coloring is probably due to a darkening of the gray color of the shirt. Before taking it to the cleaners, you should give Quick n Brite a shot. The only thing it won't clean is permanent inks or dies. Thats it! Buy it for the sweat stain and keep it handy for the hundreds of other uses it is good for.

We recommend Quick n Brite because we find it to be the best, and most safe method for various cleaning chores. So...Try this. Wet the area with warm water first. Then work the paste into the stain using your fingernail or a brush. This will break the surface tension and allow the Quick n Brite to penetrate the stain. Once the cleaner is worked in, just let it sit for a t least 20 minutes, but preferably overnight. Then rinse clean or put in the washing machine for laundering. For stains that have been around a long time or for severe stains, you may have to repeat the process to completely remove the stains. For really bad stains, or if this process still doesn't work, you can make the cleaner even stronger by heating it up. Use the stove or microwave to heat it at a low setting. Once it becomes liquified, it is super strong. Wet the area with hot water, and then use the heated quick n brite for the cleaning process. Quick n Brite is guaranteed to work and comes with a full money back guarantee. Not only will it remove persperation stains, but it will also clean hundreds of other things all over your home better than traditional methods. Rhonda-

I first tried rubbing in the paste, waiting 20 minutes, then putting in the washing machine. When that didn't work, I tried again, this time letting the shirts sit overnight before washing. I can't believe I just spent as much in shipping as the cost of the product only to be disappointed. I tried it on several white shirts with yellow perspiration stains and it did not work.

No need to worry about colors or fabrics with Quick n Brite because it is non toxic and chemical free. You could use the cleaner directly on the hat, or let it soak in a solution of Q&B and water.

Just soak the cap overnight in a solution of Quick n Brite and water, then launder the next day. If it is a hat that can't be washed in a machine, just apply the paste full strength to the stains using your fingernail or a toothbrush and let it sit for a while. Come back with a dry terry cloth towel and buff the stain out. You may need to apply a little water to completely flush out the stain. Repeat this process as necessary depending on the degree of the stain. Quick n Brite is safe to use on virtually every surface, and won't harm or bleach anything you put it on. Absolutely.
