I wud like to share my experience. My sister got an embroidery work done on her expensive plain pink coloured Saree (Indian clothing for womens). The person from who this work was entrusted (bl...dy fool) used a "BALL PEN" to draw the flowers, etc., on the cloth b4 the embroidery job. We were under the impression that the blue ink was the regular tailoring chalk.
The resulting Ink drawings could not be washed away with the branded detergents we used for years!. So we gave the Saree for drycleaning to a laundry house. After having noticed ball pen inks the laundry guy told "I will try my best but can’t guarantee if these ball pen drawings could be removed" & charged me Rs. 80/- (INR) !!. AND YES he could not remove that ink :o( & warned me that using too much chemical will erase the color of the cloth itself!!.
On having heard trusted reviews on SA8, I bought a 1 liter pack from a Amway distributor for 7 times the cost of per drycleaning I paid. But WOW, it not just removed the ball pen ink from the delicate saree, but now we wash all our clothes from SA8 that too for just Rs. 3/- to Rs. 5- cost per day - beause its a heavily concentragted liquid. So its going to last for 3+ months in a family of 4.
Moreover it is a biodegradable product so I am contributing positively to the enviroment to offset the waste I discharge on this Only livable heanvenly body called Planet Earth.
This product (in fact all its products from Amway are) Guranteed for satisfaction & money is refunded to customers if one is not satisfied - subject to less than 30% usage.
All are welcome for suggestions / criticism.
