Using a Tide marker, also known as a Tide To Go Pen, is a quick way to tackle small stains immediately. You apply the solution directly to the stain by pressing and rubbing the pen's tip onto the fabric.
Understanding Your Tide Marker
A Tide To Go Pen is a portable stain remover designed for on-the-spot treatment. It looks and functions much like a marker or pen, making it easy to carry and use discreetly. It contains a cleaning solution formulated to break down many common food and drink stains.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Use Your Tide To Go Pen
Follow these simple steps to effectively use your Tide To Go Pen to treat stains:
- Prepare the Pen: Uncap the pen to expose the treatment tip.
- Apply the Solution: Position the tip directly over the stain. Press the tip straight down onto the stain a few times to release some of the stain-fighting solution onto the affected area.
- Work the Stain: Rub the solution into the stain by running the tip of the pen across the area. This helps the solution penetrate the fabric fibers and work on lifting the stain.
- Absorb and Remove: As you rub, the microfiber cloth tip will work to absorb the solution and remove the stain. Continue gently rubbing until the stain is no longer visible or significantly faded.
Important Tips:
- Treat the stain as quickly as possible for the best results.
- Test on an inconspicuous area of the fabric first, especially on delicate or brightly colored materials, to check for colorfastness.
- Avoid over-saturating the fabric.
- While it helps lift the stain temporarily, you may still need to wash the garment later for complete removal, especially for tough stains.
This process helps break down and lift many everyday spills, preventing them from setting into the fabric until you can properly launder the item.
