This needs to be reworded so that it doesn't sound like the writer has something against OxiClean. As far as I can tell, everything the author wrote is correct, but he or she makes it seem like the OxiClean company is intentionally misleading people, when they seem to just be advertising their product as a catch-all solution-- a common advertising tactic. Every company says their products work miracles; OrangeGlo says no different.
I attempted to make the article sound more neutral, hopefully it worked. I don't have any technical information about the product, so I based what I said of what the article already contained, just in different words. It would be interesting to know how often OxiClean affects the surface (not just the stain), or if the stain is visilble under blacklight or UV. Either way, I doubt anyone actually cares.

[edit] Oxi Clean
Does anyone know what this stuff is made of, like what substances are in it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.79.27.23 (talk) 01:00, 4 March 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Commercials are misleading
The commercials show a heavily stained piece of cloth briefly dipped into OxiClean and coming out stain free. I've tried the product numerous times, and never had anything close to this. For example, I took a pile of heavily stained underwear and soaked it OxiClean overnight. After ten minutes, there was hardly any sign that it was working. 12 hours later, the underwear was much cleaner, but still wasn't as stain free as the examples shown in the commercials.
However, it did do a good job of clening the sink that I used to soak the underwear.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend the product. It simply doesn't work as promised.
