Spray N Wash Stain Stick Review - A Staple In My Laundry Room

by Neena

The Spray N Wash stain stick gets just about any stain out.

***Update from Taylor: I just wanted to mention before we get too far into Neena's review that this product is still around, but it has changed names. It is now known as a Resolve stain stick. Now, back to the interrupted review. :) ***

Years ago, when my youngest was a baby - he was wearing an all white outfit.

I was carrying him and a cold cup of coffee.
As wiggly as toddlers are - he bumped the cup and some cold coffee spilled on his shoulder.

We were away from home visiting friends so I wasn't planning on doing laundry for a few days. My friend let me borrow her Stain Stick - but I was doubtful that a coffee stain would come out of an all white cotton outfit.

Well, when I got home I threw it in the wash, but I wasn't holding my breath.

Imagine my surprise when the outfit came out looking just like new.

The Spray N Wash stain stick has become a staple in my laundry room.

Spray And Wash Stain Stick Review - Convenient, Small And Long Lasting

by Nikki S.
(Merrick, NY, USA)

Nikki has shared her review of the Spray And Wash Stain Stick, and why she thinks it is the best laundry stain remover.

Nikki says:

By far, the Spray n Wash Stain Stick is the best product I've tried thus far.

The reason I originally purchased it was just to try it because it was on sale and I had a coupon. However, once I actually used it I was hooked!

It looks like a very large tube of chapstick, with the Spray n Wash logo.

The first thing that appealed to me about it was that you do not have to wash your clothes right away after you put it on a stain! Instead, you can rub this wax like tube on the stain, and leave it in the laundry for up to seven days!

As I first purchased this in college, that was a huge relief and a big time saver!

In addition, because it is a little stick, which is smaller than a bottle of spray laundry stain remover, it also saves space.

I've never had a problem with it in terms of irritating my skin, or leaving any type of residue.

As far as I can remember, it has always removed stains, except for dried paint (which I wouldn't expect it to).

I was able to remove food stains, dirt, blood, you name it. My first tube lasted me for about one year.

When I ran out I had to hunt for another tube, and found it surprisingly difficult to find! I finally found it at the local Stop and Shop Supermarket for $2.99.

I love the convenience, small size, and how long it lasts.

It has no scent, and I always hated how the sprays seemed to get on everything sometimes. The stick is much easier to control the amount of area you want to get at. I would recommend this to anyone!

Taylor says:

Thanks Nikki for your Spray And Wash Stain Stick review.

I did not know this until recently, but apparently all Spray N Wash products are being re-branded to be Resolve stain removal products now, so if you have trouble finding it as Spray and Wash, look for Resolve laundry stain removal products and you will most likely find the same thing, just with a different name.

So, does anyone else have a favorite laundry stain remover? If so, share your laundry stain removers reviews here, telling me why you like, or don't like, a product (or read many other reviews already submitted).

I Found A Secret Cache Of Spray 'N Wash Stain Sticks!

by Sharon
(California)

Sharon has shared what she has done now that the Spray 'N Wash stain stick has gotten a new formula, with the addition of Resolve. She doesn't like the new formula, so she came up with this alternative.

Sharon says:

Thank God for the Internet to help you find long lost, secret caches of discontinued products.

After several corporate buys and sells, the infamous Spray 'n Wash Stain Stick now contains Resolve and by many reviews, apparently doesn't work as well as the old original.

Well, I found a place in New York, called Bargain Side, and they actually have it in stock without Resolve in the ingredients.

It is still by the same manufacturer in the USA, but imported from Canada. (Don't ask me why it is made here, shipped to Canada and then imported back to the USA!)

The label is in English and in French, but everything else is exactly the same. At $3.79 each I stocked up. Shipping on four was $9, for a total of $24.15, making them cost $6.00 each.

I know how well the original formula stain stick works, so it was worth it to me, and it may be to you as well.

And no, I don't have stock in Bargain Side, but I hope I will have the last remaining Spray 'n Wash Stain Stick on this planet when the world ends!

Taylor says:

Thanks so much for sharing your solution to this problem Sharon.

I get frustrated when a product changes formulations, and actually becomes worse than it was before. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

I have not received any reviews yet of the Resolve stain stick, so I would love to hear from others who have used it to hear if they think it works as well as before, or not. I sure hope it does, since I've gotten lots of rave reviews of this version (see above).

Spray 'N Wash Stick At Walmart

by LaundryMom

A reader has shared where you can find the new version of this product, which contains "Resolve" now.

LaundryMom says:

I've been looking for the Spray'n Wash Laundry Stick for months, and discovered it has been discontinued from this website.

I found it today at Walmart.com. It is still called Spray'n Wash, but it has "Resolve power", whatever that is.

I ordered 4 bottles at $2.48 plus .92 shipping each and will hope that it cleans just like the old formula.

Taylor says:

Thanks for sharing this LaundryMama. Once you give this new version a try I would love to know what you think about it.

The reader above didn't like the new version as well, but I always like to hear additional opinions about new formulations before I make up my mind.

I would love to hear from others who have tried the newer version too, telling me how it worked for you, and what stains you got out (or tried to get out) with it. You can share your laundry stain removers review here for this or any other brand, or read other reviews already submitted.
