I've been using Dawn Powerwash for a couple of years now, it does wonders on dishes, pots, and pans... It removed stains from pan's that steel wool wouldn't touch. This stuff is better than anything I've ever used to clean dishes!
So there was a motor oil stain on the beige carpet in the family room - I had tried every carpet cleaner known to try and get it out, no luck. I thought huh, I'll try the Dawn Platinum Powerwash? Stain gone in 30 seconds! I also tried it on a grease stain on my jacket - boom, gone! It hasn't harmed the fabric of the jacket or the carpet - that might not be the case for all materials. But these stains had seemed permanent and had been there awhile, so I figured why not try it? Glad I did...

We’ve been using it a couple years too. Haven’t tried it on stains, but it’s great on baked on food. A few squirts, wait a few minutes, and it comes right off. No soaking overnight.

If you've gotten into poison ivy, apply some Dawn to the affected area and dry wipe that off before rinsing. You've got only so long to get that done, don't let the PI linger.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Been getting jugs of it from Costco for a while now. I am also impressed.

My last and final job after my strokes was to take the dry cleaning from our small towns cleaners to the cleaners with the actual equipment, We went through a few finding out who could do the best and get it done within a time frame we could work with, That stuff was the go to spot cleaner in every place we used.
