How to remove stains from clothes and fabric at home? TOP effective solutions

Stains on clothing are a problem everyone faces.These can be traces of coffee, wine, grease, grass, or other types of dirt. Clothes with stains look untidy and often seem impossible to clean. So how do you deal with them? Many people turn to home remedies, but not all of them are effective or safe for fabrics. Let's take a closer look at which products actually work — and talk about the benefits of modern cleaning agents.

Why is household chemistry more effective than home remedies?

There are plenty of folk recipes for removing stains — baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, hydrogen peroxide, or even laundry soap. However, these methods have several disadvantages:

• They don't always work, especially with tough or old stains;
• They can damage fabric – for example, vinegar and peroxide may fade colored fibers, while baking soda can make fabric stiff;
• They require time and effort – soaking, scrubbing, or repeated application often fail to deliver the desired result.

Using home remedies is a gamble. Sometimes they may help, but often they lead to disappointing results. That's why experts at MDM Group recommend opting for modern cleaning products.

Modern stain removers, such as oxygen bleach, dedicated stain removers, and professional liquid detergents, are specially formulated to remove various contaminants. They work gently without damaging the fabric, and they're easy to use — without the risk of unwanted side effects.

Top 3 Best Products for Fighting Stains

Effective stain removers are a must in every household — because no one is immune to spills and stains. It’s best to have a few go-to products on hand, each with a different level of effectiveness.

One excellent solution is oxygen stain remover, like Dast. This all-purpose helper tackles a variety of stains. Oxygen-based stain removers are among the most effective products, using active oxygen to break down stains. They're suitable for both colored and white fabrics, don’t damage fibers, and are safe for most materials. Additionally, Dast helps disinfect clothing and preserve color vibrancy. It also boosts the performance of your detergent and prevents limescale buildup in your washing machine.

Using Dast is incredibly simple: dissolve 2–3 tablespoons in 1 liter of hot water and soak the clothes. The ideal temperature is between 40–90 °C. Leave garments in the solution for 30–60 minutes, then wash as usual. You can also add the powder directly to your detergent — 3–4 tablespoons for moderate stains, and up to 5 tablespoons for tough ones.

If you need to clean white fabrics, use Dast oxygen bleach. It removes yellowing, graying, and stubborn stains from white garments. Unlike chlorine-based bleaches, it won’t damage fabric structure or leave a strong odor. Use it just like the regular oxygen powder — for soaking, handwashing, or as a booster in your washing machine. It’s especially effective against sweat, food, and drink stains, and it’s gentle enough for baby clothes and bed linen.

Another powerful ally in stain removal is the professional liquid detergent “Chistolayn Expert.” Easy to use and highly effective, it offers:

• Removal of both organic and inorganic stains;
• Gentle cleaning of fabrics;
• Compatibility with any fabric color or composition (except silk and wool);
• Use in both hand and machine washing;
• Effectiveness even in cold water;
• A positive effect on fabric texture – garments stay soft and vibrant.

This product contains strong components (anionic and nonionic surfactants, complexing agents, enzymes) that break down greasy, protein-based, and pigment stains even at low wash temperatures. Chistolayn Expert also provides a disinfecting effect and is suitable for regular use.

How to remove stains properly: step-by-step guide

To effectively remove stains, it’s important to not only use the right product, but also follow a few simple tips:

• Don’t delay washing – the longer a stain sits, the harder it is to remove;
• Blot fresh stains, don’t rub – rubbing can make things worse;
• Choose the right product – use oxygen bleach for whites, stain remover or liquid detergent for colors;
• Stick to the correct dosage – too much product won’t improve results and may harm fabric;
• Use the proper water temperature – very hot water can set protein-based stains like blood, milk, or eggs;
• Match the washing cycle to your fabric – delicate materials need extra care;
• Always patch test – try the product on a hidden area first if unsure;
• Combine methods for better results – for example, use oxygen remover with Chistolayn Expert liquid detergent for maximum effect.
