MAXTITE Sodium Percarbonate (2 lbs) - 100% Pure - Solid Hydrogen Peroxide/Oxygen Bleach - Multi-Use Cleaner for Home & Laundry - HDPE container w/Resealable Child Resistant Cap

I have to say, this laundry additive has gone above and beyond in its ability to impress me! For years I have veered on the side of caution when it comes to white towels for my household. I have always been of the opinion that there is absolutely no way to keep white towels clean enough in a fully functioning, daily use household of both children and adults. Between the males in the home who seem to have an extra layer of dirt on their bodies that sloughs off when they bathe, wash their hands or clean their faces, and the girls who are inappropriately using the white towels to wipe off smudged lipstick stains, cleanup from the unwelcomed remnants of a monthly visitor and touch up make up, it's no wonder that it would feel virtually impossible to keep a bright white towels in circulation. However, I have recently acquired a bit of courage and decided to try out white towels and linens again. To my dismay, nothing has changed with time. This family of mine is still creating the same amount of dirt resulting in the same amount of unattractive, dingy white towels. I tried the usual suggestions of soaking in lemon juice, baking soda, vinegar, dawn dish soap, bleach; and it all produced the same results. DINGY TOWELS! They weren't dirty but they still had a sort of gray overtone to them that I couldn't get rid of. Then one day, after searching for additional options, I stumbled onto this stuff. I followed the directions exactly as it says on the bottle. I actually just used the green cap to eyeball the two tablespoon measurement as it says in the directions. I then still added my regular liquid detergent, Arm & Hammer, and I did still add bleach to the dispenser as usual. 30 minutes later I opened my washer to some much brighter and whiter clothes! I couldn't believe it! In fact, I actually thought it was my imagination. That is, until I saw the brown ring left behind in my washing machine, as you can see in the photo! This stuff cleaned so well that there was a brown ring of dirt left behind from the amount of filth that it lifted from the white laundry load! At that point I was sold! If you want brighter, whiter whites and you are tired of searching for a new product to get you there, TRY THIS STUFF! I will never have a laundry closet that does not contain this product ever again. I hope this helps some of the other moms, grandmas and even dads who are out there struggling with this issue. As a side note on the blood stains on white clothes, I have found that keeping regular white ammonia (like the one they sell at the dollar tree) around and applying it directly to the stain prior to placing it in the laundry will do wonders to remove the stain. The same thing goes for ground in arm pit stink like in gym clothes and the like. Apply a bit of ammonia directly to the arm pits prior to laundering. If you have time ammonia and a small amount of liquid detergent is even better and it can be applied days before laundering or minutes before. HAPPY LAUNDRY DAY!! I hope you end up with a ring in your washer too!

Nine years ago, after my daughter's wedding, I spot-cleaned a few areas of her wedding gown, but did not get it dry-cleaned because it is made with embroidered lace and sequins over a satin underfabric, and dry cleaning would take the sparkle out of the lace and sequins. I zipped it in a storage bag thinking it was pretty clean. But, recently we took it out of its storage bag and were sad to see over a dozen brownish stains on the lace, as well as on the nylon netting under the lace, and on the satin fabric. We think it was likely 9-year-old champagne splatters. Over the ensuing two weeks, I tried every stain remover I could think of, including all of the 'oxy' products. None dented the stains. I figured this product was worth a try, but had little hope that it would succeed, especially when I mixed some with water, as directed, and it did not fizz one bit. Regardless, I made a paste of the granules and water, spread it on each stain, and let it sit 20-30 minutes. To my amazement, it removed every stain completely from the lace, the nylon netting, and the satin. I was also impressed that it did not appear to alter the fabric's ivory color. Wedding dress rescued! I then tried it on 3 more items which also had old stains, with mixed results: (1) A rayon blouse that had a little dot of a stain from pasta sauce [victory again!], (2) a 100% cotton white baseball hat that had a large tea stain [failure, and in fact, it turned the stain bright yellow], and (3) a pair of men's khakis that had gone through the wash with a ballpoint pen in the pocket, leaving blue ink stains [no change to the stains either way]. Giving this 5 stars because when it works, it really works! I took a few before/after photos of the wedding gown stains and may add them to this review in the days to come.

1/2 teaspoon, hot water and 10 minutes in my coffee pot and it sparkled like new. I tried it in a hot wash and it took out a stain on a blanket that had been there for years. That was a nice surprise. It is the main ingredient in some best selling urn cleaners and oxygen laundry cleaners. No extra additives or fragrances.

It is not a powder it is small granules. I add it to my laundry. I still have to pretreat stains to get them out of fabrics. I can't tell that it makes my whites any whiter, but it does a good job of eliminating odors in laundry. I saw online that I could make a paste to clean grout. The granules did not make a paste when mixed with hot water. I finally just sprinkled some sodium percarbonate on the shower floor and poured some hot water over it and scrubbed with a scrub brush. It did not get the grout as clean as soft scrub does, but I didn't have to breathe in the bleach smell and the sodium percarbonate is not supposed to kill the good bacteria in our septic system, whereas bleach does. So I guess I'll keep using it.

This review replaces a prior poor review that I gave this product. Because there were no directions on the bottle, I "guessed" at how to use it and I did not use the product correctly. Technically, I should remove a star for that reason, but once I used warm water, the cleaning was so stellar that it deserves 5 stars. The directions can be found on the sales page. --This powder TOTALLY removed months-old, saturated, dried-on blood. It also brought the fabric back from dingy to bright. I ran a full/bulky load, used 6-8 tbs of the sodium percarbonate, warm water, the normal amount of detergent, and the "long-wash cycle for extra-soiled items" in my front load washing machine. (No 6-hour pre-soak!) Really, I was pretty careless about washing the load because I figured I would have to make rags out of the parts of the fabric that were not stained. Thinking I had nothing to loose, I used warm water, normally a no-no with blood stains. I just poured in a pile of the product in the tray, which I now estimate to be about 6-8 tbs. Nothing in my life has EVER removed old, dried on blood until now. I was shocked. It even remove set-in blood stains from previous washes. (A family member has chronic bleeding wounds.) --In warm water this product freshened my washer. --Note that the powder was very slow to dissolve in cold water and did a poor job of stain removal. --I am looking forward to seeing what this product will do with other tough stains.

This product is fine. I dont know what others are complaining about. They must not be used to using it. It does not dissolve easily. Never did no matter what brand you buy. It mixes best in hot water. It is most active in hot water. In some homes depending on their city or well water. It may not react as aggressively as it does in a different home. But it is still doing its job regardless. And is good for use after mixing for about 4 to 5 hours. Then it should be poured down the drain. Try filling a small bucket with a small amount of hot water. Add your measured amount of powder to it. Leave it be for a couple minutes to soak in. When you come back, stir it. The water should become cloudy white. Add it to your larger bucket or pump sprayer and top off with hot water. While using, continuously shake or stir it to further mix in the granules. (Fyi dont leave in a sealed container. Open the lid to let vent if you set a pump sprayer or spray bottle down. It may burst) You will always end up with a white paste of undissolved granules but it is what it is. Doesn’t mean that it doesn't work. Sodium percarbonate is and always will be difficult to fully dissolve. Its not as fast acting as chlorine bleach. But it will turn a mossy green deck white. It may not show at first for those demanding instant gratification. But it will do the job with less harm to the wood.

I was using an expensive "marine" product to keep the sanitary plumbing on my boat working. I got tired of paying marine prices for something that I suspected was a commonn industrial chemical. So I looked up the materials data safety sheet for the product I had been using and foud out that Sodium percoarbonate was obviously the active ingredient. This is way cheaper and works just as well. About 1/8 of a cup flushed down the toilet and into the holding tank every 2 weeks (right after scheduled pumpout) is keeping things working fine I have also used in the the galley sink if the flow rate slows down at all. I use a lot less for the sink because a large dose will cause foaming that will come back up in to the sink. If I use a minimum abount of water to flush the percarbonate down the drain, and let it sit for half an hour the flow rate is always restored.

This stuff is also an ingredient in some laundry detergents claiming gentle bleaching action; it's among the category of oxygen "bleaches," less aggressive chemically (and destructive to fabrics) than the more traditional chlorine-based bleaches. It combines in one product the effects of sodium carbonate ("washing soda," which is moderately alkaline -- and, by the way, the original meaning of "soda" centuries ago) and hydrogen peroxide (basis of pet-stain removers and contact-lens chemical cleaning solutions). These are very low-toxicity, environment-friendly components. I've found it the solution to a longtime problem: cleaning stains on old porcelain, which won't tolerate chlorine bleach (that can cause worse staining). Its granular form also offers a mild, water-soluble abrasive action (in the manner of Bon Ami scrubbing powder, which is made from hard granulated soap). Use rubber gloves when applying it by hand: Much less caustic than lye, TSP, or chlorine bleach, it still is moderately alkaline, and the scrubbing-bubbles action from the oxygen released when it's wet increases its potential skin irritation.
