NEVER apply oxyclean directly to a fabric and let set – no matter what the company says. You have probably noticed by now that it ate through the fabric much the same as a bleach spill – if not, you soon will see a tear right where you left the corrosive powder set.

Try Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, it does amazing things.

Hi I was looking for a way to remove a stain from a Tae Kwon Do white uniform stained with blue sharpie.

Nothing that I found on the internet worked, so I start doing it myself, I was able to remove the stain 98%.

First I used Shout fabric pre-wash cleaner directly on the stain and left it there for 24 hours.

Then I washed in the washing machine with warm water and regular detergent, adding OxyClean powder, after the first time the stain was almost gone.

With the fabric still wet I applied the OxyClean powder directly to the remaining stain and let it dry for a while (20 minutes) and washed again (only this piece of clothing) and the stain was gone almost completely.

How can I remove a permanent marker stain from a very expensive dining room tablecloth? I am trying OxyClean but it does not look like it will remove it? It’s was a black permanent marker.
