Product Description
Product Description
What gets out the mess made by leaky pens, oily pizza, and lipstick? The answer: this unmatched book, which is absolutely the only stain-removal guide you'll ever need. It provides a quick and easy reference, from A to Z, to dealing with more than 170 common stains found on clothes, soft furnishings, and upholstery. And not only that: there's information on specific products and fabric types, and money-saving advice on substituting safe, natural cleansers (including a potato!) for expensive commercial ones. Keep it at hand for any disaster, so you'll know whether to use hot water or cold; if soap will get the dirt out or set it forever; how to handle a combination stain; and what to do if bleach splashes onto your favorite shirt.

Good book. Disappointed in Amazon shipping., May 18 2008
By J. Nyzio - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stain Removal: Your Really Useful Guide to Getting Rid of Stains (Paperback)
Book is good. Good information. This item WAS shipped to my military APO, however, VERY VERY disappointed in Amazon's overall, lackluster, unreliable (lack of shipping) to military APO addresses. In general, they've shipped to my military APO address about 60% (if that) of the time - for very basic items. Many purchases were not made because items can't be shipped to me, other items I had to have shipped somewhere else and pay additional shipping to get item mailed to me. Shame on Amazon! Unfortunately I've received NO good answer from Amazon!
Listmania!
