Obviously does, sometimes. He had tried a few things to remove denim dye transfer to a poly/cotton regency stripe. There again it could have been the elbow grease. Unfortunately you can't buy that in a bottle.

John,
Jokingly answering on another thread to Steve Gunn when he referred to boiling up Nemesis in a sauce pan to remove curry stains it appears that Adrian’s staining problem could have worked quicker if heat ad been added to the effected area?
What are your thought’s on this John?

I have always advocated heat as a esential part of the cleaning pie. When you heat water the molecules become active creating additional agitation.

years ago Chemdry used to tell their franchisees to clean a dirty carpet in a home put a pad in the microwave before cleaning.

also 1 of their old hwe machines used to wreck upholstery because it was just too hot.

Okay it's not a bash CD post but if the worlds favourite cleaners are using heat I'm sure they will have done their homework first.

It also has to aid the drying process. Water has to reach a certain temperature for adequate evaporation to take place. Using cold water has to add time before evaporation starts.
