Hey guys, I am doing a science fair project and I want to know your opinion on oxiclean. Do you like it or no? Does it ruin your clothes? Is it really a color-safe bleach? Would you recommend it? Respond ASAP please!

I have used it. I believe it works best on organic stains. I can't really explain what that means, but if you spill some kind of food/drink on your clothes, or if you have someone with bladder problems on bedding--it does remove it. Sometimes you have to put the powder straight on the stain and let it sit a while.

Not an expert. Just know I have used it with satisfactory ressults.

If this is a science fair project, why don't you do some experiments? Get some pieces of fabric and spill some things on them, then try cleaning them with Oxy Clean and see what happens. You'll probably find that it works better on some sorts of stains than others. And get a variety of fabrics and test them to see if it bleaches them at all.

Good luck, but in my experience it does NOT work.
