FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Can Carbona® Stain Devils® be used in the washing machine?

    Stain Devils are not a pre-wash. For best results, you need to treat each stain completely, before laundering and drying.

  2. Can I use Carbona® Stain Devils® on carpeting?

    Carbona® Stain Devils® have not been tested for use on carpeting. However, we have had many consumers use them on their carpeting with great success. Doing so is at your own discretion.

  3. Will the formula for ink remove permanent ink?

    Permanent ink is permanent. Unfortunately, the stain is there forever.

  4. Why do I need to put a cloth under the stain?

    Stains can spread while being treated, so you need somewhere for the stain to go when you remove it from the material you are treating.

  5. What if I can't put a cloth behind the stain or put the stained area in a bowl?

    For best results we recommend that you follow the directions on the bottle. However, as a last resort, you may try dabbing the material with a white cloth soaked with the formula then pat dry. Repeating process as necessary until stain is gone.

  6. Why do I need to flush the stain with hot water after treating it with Carbona® Stain Devils®?

    You need to rinse out the formula because if you let the stained area dry out without rinsing, the stain can reappear. The hotter the water, the faster the stain removal process.

  7. Will Carbona® Stain Devils® also remove the odor (like perspiration)?

    Carbona® Stain Devils® are formulated for removing stains. Follow with regular laundering to remove odors.

    No two stains are the same, so an all-purpose stain remover isn’t the answer to treating them. That’s why we created Carbona® Stain Devils® – 9 powerful formulas that treat specific stains. Stain Devils are safe and effective on washable and water-safe fabrics, excluding silk, acetate, carpeting, or upholstery.

    Look for the little yellow bottles of Carbona® Stain Devils® in the laundry section of your store. View all of the Stain Devils here.

  1. Use the formula that’s right for your stain. Follow the directions.

  2. Because Stain Devils are individually formulated, stain removal instructions may change from formula to formula. Follow the directions printed on the label of the bottle you are using.

  3. Some are instant, some aren’t. Be patient. While the appropriate Stain Devils formula should completely remove your stain, the time required may vary from immediately to several minutes or more.

  4. Combination stains. This can make stain removal a bit more complicated and may require more than one Stain Devils formula to remove it completely. But if you value your garment, it’s worth the extra time.

  5. Directions

    Spot remover for washable and dry clean only fabrics.

    Just 3 easy steps to stain removal:

    1. Before treating, remove as much of the cause of the stain as possible.
    2. Do not dilute. Place an absorbent white cloth beneath stain. Apply solution directly to stain. Tap stain with your finger, pushing it onto the cloth beneath it.
    3. Rinse with warm water.
  6. FOR LARGE STAINS

    In shallow bowl, immerse stained area in solution. Soak for 10-15 minutes. Gently rub fabric together and rinse with warm water. Repeat steps with fresh solution and longer soaking time, if necessary.

  7. DO NOT USE ON LEATHER, SUEDE, SILK, ACETATE, CARPETING OR UPHOLSTERY

    Before use, test for colorfastness on an inconspicuous area.

    Stain Devils #5 does a perfect job of getting out all my grease stains, as long as the stain is treated BEFORE the garment goes in the washer and dryer. I highly recommend this product!

    I just wanted to tell you how incredible your STAIN DEVILS® #5 – FAT & COOKING OIL is! I got chicken fat all over a shirt so I bought your product and the stains came out. I have been since using it to treat the stains on my kids’ clothes, too. It’s saving a lot of our ‘ruined’ clothes and I very much appreciate that you have made such a great product. I look forward to trying other Stain Devils in the future.

    I was getting so fed up finding greasy stains on our Shirts. I had tried the standard stain removers on the market like Spray N Wash and nothing worked. Then, I found Carbona Stain Devil #5!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the most amazing product I have found in years!!! Just today, I treated 11 shirts!!! And yes, all the stains came out! The best part is that your product doesn’t stink like some of the other stain removers (that don’t even work) and the price is amazing!! My teenagers have problems with perspiration stains so I am buying #9 next. The other day when I bought another bottle of #5, the cashier stopped and looked at it. I explained to her what it is. I am telling everyone I can think of about it!!! In fact, I am going to go post about your product on my Facebook wall right now. Thank you again for an amazing product at a reasonable price – that actually WORKS!!!

    Carbona to the rescue AGAIN! Had a small but very prominent black mark on the front of a new white shirt. It looked like grease but I wasn’t sure so I tried a Q-Tip with some chlorine bleach which didn’t touch it. Duh! I had Carbona Stain Devils #5 for Fat, Grease & Oil which worked great. I just put a bit on and worked it a bit between my fingers and voila! Thanks, Carbona. I should think of you FIRST!

    This wonderful product is absolutely the only laundry pre-treater that does what it’s supposed to do. I even tried it with a year-old stain on a shirt that had been through the washer/dryer many times…and the Carbona Fat and Cooking Oil remover got it out – completely!! I was astounded!! I live in Columbus, Ohio, and these products are difficult to locate at area grocery stores, but Walmart carries them at the incredibly low price of under $2.00. Love them!!!

    Title of Review: Worked Instantly on black grease on light upholstery!

    Ordered an upholstered chair from Wayfair. When I took the plastic off there was a small black grease smear on the back. Well I sure didn’t want to have to send the whole chair back! So I ran over to Publix Supermarket here in Florida and picked up the Carbona Stanin Devils for Fat and Cooking Oil. I heated boiling water and used a white dishcloth and squirted a tiny amount on the stain and then wiped it away with the cloth dipped in the hot water. Blew it dry with blow dryer and voila! Like new! Very pleased! Thank you, Paula

    Title of Review: I tried my best.

    I purchased this product, followed the directions and I had great hope it would remove the cooking oil or Olive oil stains from a shirt. But unfortunately, it did not work for me. I truly wish it worked. It’s a new shirt.

    Title of Review: Cooking oil be gone!

    I often forget to put on an apron when cooking. Consequently I had several solid color dark tops with cooking oil splash stains. One navy blue top had the stain for years and had been through several washes. I thought they were headed for the trash. I can’t believe how well this product worked. I was truly amazed. I am sold. Will be a faithful customer ready to try your other stain removal formulas. Two thumbs up guys!!

    Title of Review: Skeptical at first

    Just bought my husband new t-shirt but got a salad dressing blob right on the front.
    Tried Clorox and soaked in Woolite for hours. Neither worked. Went to Giant and picked up bottle of #1 fat & cooking oil stain devils which is only 1.7 fluid ounces, which is all I needed and was very reasonably priced. And it really and truly worked!
    Did not expect the stain to be removed and was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Would highly recommend this product. Don’t always go by big named products that come in huge containers and you only use once or twice and pay $$$$$.

    Title of Review: Shit Happens

    I am a senior and the place I live at uses a lot of fats and oils. Not only is this product excellent for blouses or pants with fat stains (use before washing), but it is also excellent if you get surprised by diarrhea on clothes or bedsheets!
