Answers
Clorox Oxi Magic Stain Remover Powder

Will I get added cleaning power if I add Ultra Clorox® Regular bleach to a wash load containing Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder?
No, we do not recommend this. In fact, the two products will react with each other and decrease the efficacy of both. By mixing products you will get less satisfactory results than either one used alone with detergent.

Will I get more cleaning power if I add some Clorox 2® color safe bleach to a wash load containing Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder?
Yes, you can add both products to your laundry load. Since the formulas are different, they are complimentary and their performance together should be better than using each of them separately.

Can I use Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder as a pre-soak?
Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder may be used for pre-soaking garments. Simply follow the directions on the package.

When soaking colored fabrics in Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder, we recommend that you sort loads by color to minimize problems, and check for colorfastness before soaking if uncertain. For best results, bright and dark colors should presoak for 30 minutes while all other garments should presoak for one hour or longer. Clorox® Oxi Magic™ stain remover powder may also be used as a pretreatment directly on stains or soils, followed by prompt machine-washing.
