People have been using chlorine bleach in their laundries since the end of the 18th century. While these products work very well in whitening clothes chlorine bleaches do have a negative effect upon the environment because of their chemistry. Care must be taken in using chlorine bleach as it is toxic to humans, animals, and plants.* Also, we all have experienced destroying a colored article of clothing because chlorine bleach was accidentally spilled on it.

OXY-BOOST is a safe and effective alternative to chlorine based products and it can be used in many applications in and around the home. It is based on sodium percarbonate which uses oxygen for destaining and deodorizing. OXY-BOOST is safe to use at all temperatures, on most washable fabrics, and all colors, in hard or soft water, and is compatible with other household cleaners.

Also, it produces no harmful by-products which negatively affect the environment. Unlike chlorine bleach, which can merely cover up a stain, Oxy-Boost attacks and breaks down organic stains to totally remove them from the garment. For Oxy-Boost uses and instructions, please see the Oxy Boost Uses.

Ingredients: Sodium percarbonate, soda ash

Laundry

In the laundry OXY-BOOST is used to destain, deodorize, and whiten. It is very effective as a laundry presoak for heavily stained articles. For light soils add 1ounce of OXY-BOOST with your laundry detergent per load. For moderate soils use 2 ounces and for heavily soiled articles use 4 ounces. 

To whiten and deodorize diapers or to destain cloth menstrual pads add 4-6 ounces of OXY-BOOST into the soak cycle. Soak in hot water for at least 30 minutes, or overnight, then complete wash cycle.

For whitening old linens and yellowed window shears, deodorizing and cleaning tennis shoes, or to get rid of yellow armpit stains on shirts: soak in 2 ounces of OXY-BOOST per gallon of water for at least one hour, or overnight, then rinse.
