Now that basketball season has arrived, I am going to be up to my elbows in dirty uniforms and other sports related laundry. It can be pretty difficult to remove some of those tough stains which is why I am glad to have the help of New Purex Plus Clorox 2 detergent. Not only does it work on 100 stains, but it is also safe for colors, and bleach free.
This is big news because my son’s uniform is navy blue and white so I always have to stay away from bleach products when I am destaining it. It’s available in two fragrances: Original Fresh and Sunny Linen! I really love the idea of being able to remove stains from all our clothes that will also smell fresh and clean, at the same time.
Purex plus Clorox 2 detergent contains 3 stain-fighting enzymes to remove 100 stains such as:
- Starchy stains like chocolate and tomato sauce.
- Protein-based stains like grass and blood.
- Food stains that use guar gum like ice cream and BBQ sauce.
To remove some of these tough stains, I usually rub some Purex plus Clorox 2 detergent into the fabric and let it sit for 5 minutes before washing. Believe it or not, that is all it takes to get rid of some of the stains that my boys manage to attract to all their clothes, especially their sports uniforms. Gone are the days of having to spend hours rubbing out stubborn stains.
Since Purex plus Clorox 2 detergent combines the bright clean of Purex with an extra powerful boost of Clorox 2 stain fighters, I don’t have to work as hard to bright clean all our clothes. This allows me to spend more time doing the things that I really enjoy, like hanging out with my three favorite guys!

The toughest stain I face is … you ready for this… cow manure. I know – gross. We garden, though, and it’s impossible to keep it from getting into the clothes.
My kids get so dirty and stain their clothes. I use Clorox 2 with all their clothes. It’s good to know that you can now get it already added to the laundry soap.
I work in a restaurant so I get many like wine stains, steak sauce, all them red items and also just my sleeve cuffs from working with a white dress shirt.
My toughest stains are food stains and grease stains! I can never seem to get any of them out!
The toughest would be grease stains from my husband. And also from my grandson who loves grape juice.
My toughest stains lately are chocolate soy milk and pizza sauce! I feel like the laundry never ends!
The toughest stain right now that I tackle would have to be anything that is on our socks. It doesn’t take them long for them to get dirty and I have NEVER liked stains on my socks.
Grass stains are tough to tackle. Also, just dirt stains are a pain.
My biggest challenge is the grease spatters on my clothes from cooking. I find they are almost impossible to remove.
I entered your Entenmanns giveaway.
With having 2 boys in the house the toughest stains for me are grass and dirt stains. Would love to try this detergent.
I play tennis and love to wear white but I’m such a mess…my outfits don’t stay white for long. This sounds like it will do the trick!
You would think that little girls are clean and pristine. Well, they are not. They have some of the biggest stains to tackle. From food to dirt!
This stuff works great, and you just reminded me I need more. It’s not easy fighting stains!
My toughest stains are cooking grease. I always manage to splash something on me and then my shirt is always ruined!
Grease is definitely one of the worst stains. Grass stains can be trouble too!
This sounds like a great detergent. I will have to try it and see if it gets the oil stains out of my sons bowling shirts.
I may need to give this a shot! My kids have been bringing home grass stains lately… I hate grass stains. I especially hate grass stains on new jeans.
And best of luck to your son!
We use Purex detergent! It works really well and it’s a great price too.
I swear I am doing laundry every other day for my family, especially my kids. I tackle grass stains and milk stain along with some grease stains.
I struggle with grass and dirt stains on my son’s pants.
My toughest stains disappeared when my kid moved out! She’s now handling her own wash! Yay!
Splattered oil from cooking is hard. Ink is another stain I hate for the kids to get.
Grass stains are the worst for us. Well, that and garage grease stains (guilty as charged).
My toughest stains are mystery grease stains that appear on my son and husband’s clothes.
When my hubby works in the garden he gets some pretty nasty stains because our soil has a lot of clay in it. It leaves oily, grimy stains on his jeans. I have to pretreat and wash more than once sometimes!
The toughest stains I face are the ones related to sports such as baseball. My boys get quite dirty from their sports.
For me, the most challenging stain is the proverbial ring-around-the-collar. I treat my spouse’s dress shirts every time I wash them, but the stains never seem to completely disappear. Sometimes a pen will leak a little ink in his shirt pockets, too, and that’s really tough!
I always have grease stains on my husband’s Chef jackets. Also those times where the baby diaper did not hold its contents if you know what I mean…
I have lots of clothes that I have nearly given up on and I am hoping this can help,
The toughest stains that I have faced are grass stains. My little ones are always out side getting dirty,
My husband’s grease spots and my sons grass stains. My son can’t stay on his feet at school on recess.
My husband’s grease stains from his work clothes are the worst.
So many tough stains! The toughest being juice stains because of the food color, grass, and especially oils from food!
I didn’t realize that Purex had Clorox 2!! My kids are always making stains in the clothes in summer time sounds like great detergent!
We have a lot of difficult stains. One of the worst would be grass stains Kids really know how to get those pants dirty. Mud stains are really bad too.
I have to tackle random grease stains and I never know where they came from.
Purex with Clorox detergent would work in my house! Although the kids are all grown and have learned to avoid messy food spills on their clothes, it is the grass stains that are my main concern when doing the laundry. I am going to try this and hopefully, it would make my laundry day a little more pleasant.
The perfect laundry buddy for a woman living in a male dominant house! To do laundry for three boys and a hubby is challenging! Thanks to Purex, my life has been a whole lot easier and I do not dread the days when I have to do laundry.
The toughest stains in our household are coffee (on white work blouses) and deodorant stains (on black shirts).
My toughest stains are normally oil and dirt. I battle these on a regular basis and need a detergent that can handle these types of things.
Purex is my favorite brand. I am thrilled to know they have stain fighting formula. My husband can get pretty messy. 😉
My toughest stain is Soy Sauce from eating sushi…. I hit my shirt, EVERY. SINGLE, TIME… Ill have to try this and see if it works 🙂
Ink and grease are probably the toughest, but if you get to them before they dry they aren’t as difficult. Most stains will rinse out with water if you catch them early enough.
Laundry at home is a struggle when you are married to a truck driver! I will have to give this detergent a try!!

Purex is awesome! I wish I could buy some here! The laundry detergent here isn’t the best.
My daughter’s clothes are the worst. She is just learning how to feed herself so she gets food on her clothes at almost every meal.
Besides ALL, this is the only detergent we use. I need something tough on stains especially for my little one that just started soccer!

No kiddos yet and my husband isn’t playing ball at the moment so stains are less of a concern, but holy smokes the smell of his gym clothes leaves me gagging! I will have to give this a test to see if it’s up for the sweaty smell. Thanks for sharing.
This looks fantastic! I am always looking for something that will get stains out of my kiddos’ clothes.
We love Purex in my home and we have used it for years! I have tried using other brands but always seem to come back to it as it works the best for everything.

My toughest stains are my hubby’s ring around the collar stains on his white dress shirts! I would love to try Purex on this stains!
Blood is always tough. But even more frustrating are oil-based stains, like cooking oil or sauces. I love to cook and I’m clumsy. You do the math. 🙂
