| Mimi369's Full Review: Clorox Oxi Magic Powder |
I have to admit it. I have fallen into the OXI craze that is racing across the nation. I have been secretly adding
Clorox Oxi Magic Powder to my family's laundry for several weeks now and boy have we noticed the difference!
I was first turned on to this chlorine-free stain removing powder by a dear friend of mine who wears his lunch on his tie. I never suspected that an older man would even care about removing such stains from shirts and ties, but, hey, you never know! He convinced me that it was just the best thing since the wheel...I kid you not!
So along with my old pal's conviction to Clorox Oxi Magic Powder and a bit of my own curiosity and desire to remove some stains, I decided to buy it and try it.
Manufacturer Claims
~removes wine!
~removes tea and juice!!
~removes pet stains!!!
~it's odor-free!!
~it's safe on colored fabric & surfaces!
~removes stains from ~ bathtubs~ sinks~ tiles~ shower curtains~vinyl & tile floors~ carpets
~...and more household uses
What's In The Tub
The back of the two pound tub that I paid such a small price for lists two ingredients: Sodium percarbonate and Sodium Carbonate. It also states not to contain any phosphorus.
So, what exactly does this mean to consumers like you and me? Basically, the Sodium percarbonate assures us that this product is very safe to use and will not cause harm to our environment. Very cool, indeed. While the Sodium Carbonate keeps this awesome cleaning powder from clumping in the tub as well as clumping and staying on our laundry.
In essence, these two ingredients tell me to use Clorox Oxi Magic Powder with confidence and that I should tell everyone I know about its miracles.
Does It Work
Just reading the label on that day in the cleaning product aisle gave me major goose bumps! I could hardly wait to go home and do some dirty laundry! Oh, yeah!
The ultimate tests on determining if this white odorless fine powder would work as it claimed, would be on my son's filthy work-out clothing. I gave little hope for any cleaner's ability to remove stains from my husband's dirty, greasy, muddy puttering-around-the-yard-doing-projects sweatshirts and jeans.
Here's what I found
After many, many washes over several weeks I am thoroughly convinced of two things.
The first is that I absolutely love the way that my whites come out super bright and my clothing is left smelling fresh. I love that the powder does not remain on my clothing; no residue whatsoever. I am in awe that the colors are actually brighter than I have seen them in a very long time since using any OXI product. The fact that I can use this stain remover on my colored clothes is fabulous! There have been no running of colors at all.
Secondly, most newer stains came out with the first washing. The deep sweat stains in my son's work-out shirts came out miraculously clean with only one wash. Yes, I was amazed. You should have seen the size of those sweat stains.
I did find, however, that deeply embedded stains like motor oil and dirt from crawling under the house in my husband's nasty jeans were lighter, but not gone, as expected. I hoped for a miracle, but was pleased with a gift. My gift was seeing the smile on hubby's face when he saw the brightness in his clothing.
The mud and gunk came out just as the manufacturer claimed it would, as well as some old grass stains!
As far as other household uses, I gave the Clorox Oxi Magic Powder a spin in the bathroom on the tile floor, sink and shower. Beautiful job on the tiles and sink. By following all directions for mixing and using the powder you, too, can effectively remove stains in many places in the home. It's truly that good.

Final Thoughts and Recommendations
Clorox Oxi Magic Powder does not disappoint. I have used it with much success mostly in the laundry.
It only takes a small amount of product to do a whole lot of cleaning, therefore, we are saving money in the long run. My 32 ounce tub still has lots of cleaning tough stain removing powder left after five weeks of usage.
I highly recommend I highly recommend Clorox Oxi Magic Powder and I am confident that you will be recommending this super product to your friends, as well.
