Here are what other fabricare professionals are saying about Formula Z and a few ways they are using Formula Z

"...a customer brought in an order of 7 shirts still in the bag from the cleaners across the street from me. She was upset with how they looked. I soaked them in Formula Z and hot water over night, then washed like regular. They looked GREAT! I didn't even charge her. She has been a customer ever since, even though I charge alot more than the guy across the street for shirts..."

"...we use Formula Z as a final resort... as a booster for optical brightners and as a spotter... please don't ask for individual stories... I would overload you...like the white prom dress, the hair spray, the ink... nope I will stop there... those were the best recollections...."

"...I mix 2oz of Formula Z mixed with water and use it on my nasty collar customers' shirts... we have noticed a whiter and less collar problems by using Formula Z... have used it on burlington house coated backing drapes and sheers... 30 year old christening outfits look like new by soaking and flushing to rinse and hang to dry..."

"...it is great on wedding gown hems, either straight or mixed with Laundry Wetspo®...It is a great booster for shirts. We are not scrubbing collars at all.Sometimes just a little bead of Formula Z and water at the collar and no rings or brown marks. It really works great for us."

"..I mix a few ounces of Formula Z in a spotting bottle with the rest being Laundry Wetspo and it is great on cuffs, collars and hem lines...."
