Carbona Stain Devils Number One

It worked for me to remove stubborn cooking oil stains. I've purchased and used it a few times.

My fiances nicotine patch got stuck on our sheets and it left a square of glue. I washed them multiple times and it never came out. I put this stuff on the stain and put it right in the washer, ignoring the directions on the bottle. The stain came right out, sheets look new again! I should’ve bought this stain remover ages ago.

It does exactly what it says. I sat in gum in a movie theater seat and thought my Hudson jeans were ruined. My friend suggested I give this a try, so I ordered it from Amazon.On accident, I didn't follow the bottle's instructions and that may have helped. The bottle says to remove as much of the residue from gum, etc as you can, then put the stain remover on the affected area and leave for 15 minutes. I forgot about it and left it overnight. When I came back in the morning, the remaining gum residue looked the same. I poured on more of the remover and then took a toothbrush and lightly scrubbed the gummy area -- the gum came right off!This stuff its great! I saved the rest of the bottle, put on the shelf in the laundry and hope I don't have to use it again. I'm thinking of ordering a few more of the bottles -- the one for red wine for example -- to have just in case. Definitely give it a try.

I purchased this in Oct 2014 to have on hand "just in case" because I love polishing my nails but knew that eventually I was going to end up with polish somewhere other than my nails. It took 15 months to need it but man-o-man am I glad I had this around. I was sorting my polish and accidentally kicked a bottle and it broke at the neck, spilling red holographic nail polish onto my new carpet (in my new apartment... haven't even lived here a month yet!). I immediately threw salt onto the polish pile to soak up the polish that hadn't penetrated into the carpet yet and let it sit for a few minutes while I went to grab the Carbona. The clumped polish was easy to pick up with a paper towel and I was left with a nice half dollar size of red polish on the carpet. I squirted about half the bottle onto the spot, let it sit for about 10 minutes and then started to dab with a paper towel. Once I'd gotten up as much moisture as possible, I poured about half of what was left in the bottle onto the spot again, folded a paper towel over to make a square about the size of the spot and set some heavy books on it for another 10-15 minutes. Once again I blotted as much as possible then sprayed some water on the spot and continued to blot. At this point the spot was almost completely gone. I used the remainder of the bottle on the spot, scrubbed with a white towel and amazingly enough, the spot is barely even noticeable. I went back after a few hours to see how it looked after it had a chance to dry and it took me a minute to even find the spot! Red polish out of a beige carpet! I was amazed!! I'm definitely ordering more, as I'm sure between myself and my teenage daughter, we are bound to have this happen again at some point. It's much more noticeable in the photo as in person, it's near the wall inside a closet, but even so, it's WAY better than a giant red polish splotch on my carpet.

I am amazed. This worked perfectly on the FIRST TRY! My only issue is that the bottle was not full and I couldn’t tell if it had been previously used or not.Product itself was great!

It took the nail polish off my fingers but not the carpet..it just spread everywhere.

While enjoying a walk around a nearby lake town I decided to sit down on a grassy area to enjoy my ice cream cone. When I stood up I felt something on the back of my shorts. I could not figure out what it was I sat in. A small area was sticky like sap or gum. Anyway I was super bummed because of course they were my favorite shorts. I washed them and it didn't come out at all. I found this and ordered it immediately. It was super easy to use. I poured a tiny bit over the area, just enough to make it wet. I waited a few minutes and used a butter knife to scrape it. A bit came off. I repeated the process 4-5 times. Each time there was less to scrape off, but still some of the substance in the fibers. After the first few times I stopped trying to scrape it and instead looked for progress. Each time there was less of a spot. It literally disappeared a bit more each time. Magical. It completely disappeared. I highly recommend this stuff!

It didn’t remove the stain. It removed the glue but left a stain
