What is Tide to Go?
Tide to Go is a portable stain removing pen from Tide that instantly removes many fresh food and drink stains.
How does it work?
1. Remove excess residue from the stain.
2. Press the tip onto the stain several times to release some stain remover solution onto the stain.
3. Rub tip gently across the stain to remove it. When necessary, add more liquid and continue rubbing gently.
4. Important: If treated area will be exposed to direct sunlight, wipe with a damp cloth or napkin to remove excess solution left on fabric.
For tough stains, place a paper towel under the stain while treating or wipe excess liquid or residue away with a damp paper towel, or reapply as necessary.
Does Tide to Go work on all stains?
No. Tide to Go is designed specifically for removing fresh food and drink stains. Stains that Tide to Go works best on include ketchup, BBQ sauce, grape juice, tomato juice, coffee, soda, chocolate syrup, tea and wine. Tide to Go does not perform as well on non-food and drink stains including ink, grease, blood, and grass stains.
Are there any stains that Tide to Go cannot remove?
For tough, thick stains like BBQ sauce and chocolate, we recommend that consumers wipe off excess parts of the stain before applying Tide to Go.
Tide to Go does not perform as well on non-food and drink stains including ink, grease, blood, and grass stains. These are the types of stains that will need to be pretreated and laundered.
Why is Tide to Go only for fresh food and drink stains?
Tide to Go was designed specifically for food and drink stains because our consumer research indicated that fresh food and drink stains accounted for 72% of stains that occur on the go. We are meeting a very specific consumer need with Tide to Go.
Tide to Go didn't work well on my coffee stain - why not?
If used properly, Tide to Go performs very well on coffee stains. It is important to adhere to the instructions.
We also encourage consumers to reapply Tide to Go as necessary with certain stains. However, no product can promise to remove every stain under every condition, and so we're making sure that consumers understand exactly what Tide to Go is for and how to use it.
Some readers are disappointed with performance — they say that stains weren't eliminated at all — just ameliorated. Aren't you over promising?
No. When Tide to Go is used according to package direction on non-greasy fresh food and drink stains we are confident that it will deliver results that will make consumers very happy. However, no product can promise to remove every stain under every condition, and so we're making sure that consumers understand exactly what Tide to Go is for and how to use it.
How are you communicating to consumers that Tide to Go is specifically for removing fresh food and drink stains?
We are letting consumers know that Tide to Go is designed specifically for fresh food and drink stains by flagging this information on packaging and instructions, advertising and online.
Is Tide to Go easy to take on the go?
Tide to Go was designed specifically for consumers on the go. It is easy to handle and small enough to fit into briefcases, purses, desk drawers, car glove compartments, etc.
Is Tide to Go safe for all fabrics?
It is safe to use on most colourfast, machine washable and dry cleanable fabrics.
Is there any risk of Tide to Go leaking?
We are confident that there is little risk of leakage with the Tide to Go packaging. The nib has a valve system so that liquid is only released when the nib is pressed.
How long does the Tide to Go pen last?
With an advantage over single-use wipes, Tide to Go has multiple uses — approximately 10-20 applications.
What are the key ingredients in Tide to Go?
Peroxide (non-chlorine bleach) surfactant and perfume.
Does Tide to Go contain bleach?
Tide to Go does not include bleach and is safe to use on most fabrics.
Are there plans to apply for the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval for Tide to Go?
Tide to Go has already been through rigorous testing at the Good Housekeeping Institute, and we are pleased to have been awarded the Good Housekeeping Seal.
Where can I find more stain-related information?
We recommend visiting www.tide.com for helpful product information, practical tips on laundry care, special offers and promotions, updated fabric care articles, and an interactive Stain Detective, which provides official Tide stain removal solutions.
Are there plans to develop a portable stain removing pen designed for multi-purposes?
While we cannot discuss current plans for future products, the Tide brand is known for innovation in the laundry aisle and will continue listening to consumer wants and needs.
