I keep it in the car for little spills on seats or clothes. Must have when traveling and having meals in the car.. I keep one in my husband's truck so he can quickly stop stains on his favorite shirts.

I am a Tide pen fan and couldn't find one in nearby stores, so Amazon to the rescue. It works great on all the kinds of stains that I've tried it on. This size while great to carry in a purse, does not fit liquid restrictions for carry on luggage, so look for the smaller version.

This amazing little stain stick can save the day! It is easy to use and provides amazing results. I keep one in my purse, in a suitcase when traveling, and in the car. Those last minute stains or spots discovered too late almost always can be removed. I have used it on fine fabrics with no damage and quick results.

I'm a "Valuista," which means my reviews explain whether or not a product is a good value for the price. This stain remover works as advertised. It has saved me lots of time when I need to quickly erase a stain. A furniture mover didn't cover my new bed mattress, and it got dirty in his truck. After using this stain remover, it looked like new again. So this product is a good value for the money and has my "Valuista seal of approval." Here's a "Valuista" tip if it's a difficult grease or oil stain: To remove grease stains quickly, and safely, use hair shampoo; preferably one without tons of perfume, conditioners, or additives. (Although I admit I've used anything handy in a pinch and had good luck.) Hair shampoo is especially made to cut through the grease and oil in our hair. Other types of soaps and cleaners are used for generalized cleaning. First, test for color fastness, then rub a little shampoo gently into the dry stained fabric. Leave it on for about 10 minutes and rinse out or throw it into the washing machine. Voila! It works! Try it!

We bought this to take on our travels and it works well. It is compact and takes up no space in our day pack. So it is with us any time we are in a restaurant.
