Katherine, I want you to know you made my 90-year-old mother very happy shortly before she passed away last year. A cut on her leg got blood all over her beige carpet right beside her bed. Nothing got it out, and she finally resorted to putting in a small rug on top of it - which of course was a tripping hazard and she was prone to falls by that point at 90 years old. I'd seen your Folex recommendation and so when I traveled to visit her for the first time since the pandemic, I got the 2-year-old stain out the first time I tried it. It was a such a relief to her because every time she had had to look at that strain, it had reminded her of her ill health. Long story but my very sincere thanks on behalf of my mom. You really made a difference for her. ❤️
Folex is awesome. We just sold our house. Some of the upstairs carpets had some brownish set in stains. You know - the boys spilled something and then pushed the sofa over to hide it. We had the carpet cleaner come out and when they finished the stains were gone. 24 hours later they had reappeared. The realtor called in her guy and he got them out only to reappear the next day. I figured the stains were in the pad and the cleaning reset them and then as the carpet dried they were wicked back into the carpet. I decided to try to spot clean so the pad wouldn’t get wet. Folex to the rescue. I applied over three days and each application removed more. And these were stains that were OLD!! Best stuff ever. Even the realtor went out and bought a gallon.
I’m a reseller of clothing and I sell online. Folex has been my go to spot remover for years now. It gets out almost any stain. It has saved me from throwing away clothes instead of selling them.
I have not tried Folex, yet, but Home Depot sells the spray bottle for $7.98, and gallon bottle for $18.98. Lowe’s sells them for $6.98 and $18.98. I live in the central Illinois area. Hope this helps!! 😊
@@PR-pe9oc I just checked so for me in New Jersey at Home Depot the 36oz spray bottle is $7.48 and the 1 gallon is $18.98 then at Lowes the 32 oz bottle is $6.98 and the gallon is $18.98
I'm glad you showed the removal of the dog vomit stain. I also have a golden retriever that has had his moments of barfing on my nice rugs. Those stains seem impossible to get out, so Folex, I'm ready for you!
**THANK YOU!** I finally found the egg holder that hangs under the frig shelf that you showed in your last video!! I travel fulltime in an rv and I can't tell you how thrilled I am not to have a carton or larger plastic container for my eggs taking up precious space. Your videos always have the BEST IDEAS. Hope you know how much we appreciate them.❤
My late MIL introduced me to Folex over 25 year ago. She was a self proclaimed “clean freak” and absolutely loved doing it. This was her Holy grail cleaning solution but I have never thought to use it in my Bissel carpet! She’d be so excited to find another way to use it! What a great tip! Thank you!!
Hi Katherine! I use Folex on my dining room upholstered light grey chairs. My Grandson is 6 and sometimes makes messes with Welches grape juice, chocolate syrup and this stuff is magical!!! Gets everything up. My go to for bedroom carpets, car, throw pillows (mine too are white all 15 of them) yes I’m obsessed with pillows too) have a Fantastic Week!❤️🥰
I have never used Folex, but I've seen it. Anyways, I had to vacuum and shampoo an RV carpet that was a light tan color and had 11 years worth of stains from the red/clay dirt in our area. This RV was used to live in on a home construction site 3 times. The entire carpet was stained all over with grease, and dirt. So, I sprayed a 50/50 mix of Pine Sol and water on the stain and let set for 5 minutes. I then took a bar of Fels Naptha and got it wet and rubbed it on the stain. I then took my carpet shampooer and went over it. All the stains came out. The Fels Naptha bars are long long long term lasting.
I Love watching your video from Kentucky and Please praying for me my Mom die holding her hand when she past away it's so hard, but watching your video it's make Laugh and smile and Happy.
I have been watching different channels about hacks and ideas. I love your channel the best. You not only take us shopping but also tell us comparable prices. The best thing is that you and your family show us how to use the items. Muchisimas gracias por todos las idea. You are enough! ¡Eres suficiente!
You are so right. This stuff is nothing short of miraculous! I have been using Folex for 20+ years. As you recommend, I buy it by the gallon at Lowe's home improvement. I first used it in my carpet steam cleaner detergent reservoir. When I saw what it did to high traffic areas I was sold and have been since❤
I have used Folex for about 8 years. It is FANTASTIC. When we moved into our home, there was white carpet that had a red wine stain. I decided to try Folex on it and it removed almost all of it. I didn't try to remove all since we were in the process of putting in hardwoods. It also removed a spilled cup of coffee on a new rug. It is the best. I used to get it from Bed, Bath and Beyond but I believe you can now get it from many places.
I have been a Folex devotee for years but I have never tried it on clothing or even on throw pillows! Crazy! I definitely will now. And I completely agree with you that the fact that it is odor-free is an enormous plus! No residue, no smell, just reliable stain-killing results. 👍😁
Thanks for sharing this Kathryn. Yrs ago I got some Kenmore stain remover from Sears. I tried it on some tar my husband got on our new carpet while he was roofing. I couldn't believe it worked. Sears is gone and now I can get Folex. Take care. ❤️
I have never tried Folex however I just went to the the Dollar 25 Tree and on a whim I picked up a bottle of Pinalen. I ❤️❤️ it so much. Amazing cleaner. I went back today to grab 2 more bottles. One for my bestie. I kind of have a weird obsession with cleaners. Don’t let the color throw you off. The scent is nice. This product keeps you inspired to clean. Has anyone else tried Pinalen before?
I bought Folex after you recommended it in one of your other videos. I bought one for me and one for my daughter. This stuff really works great. I use it on everything that gets stained and used it on old stains. I am so grateful to you for recommending it. Thank you!!
I've been using Folex forever! Works amazing. I had an entire glass of red wine spill on my white cloth chair - I folexed the crap out of it and you couldn't even tell. :D
I love that you included the dog vomit in this, because the first thing I thought at the top of the video when you start a talking about stain removal is, my biggest issue is the cat vomiting on the beige carpeting. Thanks for the tips!
I have one long haired cat who grooms constantly and vomits hairballs daily. No food, supplement, or even brushing helps. Wood and tile floors here, but Folex and enzyme pet stain removers help the reproduction fake oriental rugs. Moving to the husband’s family home, 100 years old. Real antique furnishings and area rugs! Any advice? I won’t declaw, either. Should I use clippers on this cat’s fur? What to do about clawing? Help! This 4.5 lb cat is a big issue!
I absolutely love this product. I have used it for years to take out blood stains for my uniform. Thank you for the wonderful reminder on how many other things you can use it on. Have a wonderful day. Remember that you are enough!❤
I have never heard of Folex. But I am here to tell you that I am headed over to Amazon right now! Thanks so very much for what you do. Your channel is one of only two home-based channels that I watch regularly and faithfully. Why would I watch anyone else? You got the bases covered, Kathryn ❤
@@bargainspotter1027 I was looking online. I haven't walked into a Walmart building in a while but I plan on looking for Folex the next time I am there.
I snagged a bottle. I have beige carpets and it has spot stains all over it. I can't wait to see how this works! Thank you for always teaching us your tricks. I appreciate you more than you know
I was first introduced to Folex by my neighbor in Spring Valley, CA. It turns out that he was the inventor of the product, and a super nice neighbor, as well!
I’ve been using Folex since 99 and to demonstrate it to my sister I took black shoe polish and rubbed it on her carpet. The second I did that I regretted it not knowing if it would come out and thank god it did lol
Thank you for introducing me to Folex in a video last month. I bought it ASAP and have used it on Dog and Cat Vomit, spilled OJ and Mystery Stains (hello 2 boys!). I must try the "whicking trick" you demonstrated as I have mystery stain on my sons floor that so far the Folex has not got rid of.....
Great great ideas Kathrine!! Love all of your ideas!! I just need to write it all down because once I’m at the Dollar Tree I get overwhelmed and then I forget what to get or I find the item but forget how to use it!! 😂😂😂
I pause the video and 8:11 take a photo. I have a grocery list app for Dollar Tree and put the item on there with sp (see photo) or whatever works for you. It may be weeks before I go there and I never could remember. 😅
I will have to try out the Folex product. I'm always kicking fir cleaning products that make my life easier. Thanks for sharing. Until your next video.
When I bought a new sofa. I ordered Folex. In case my dogs messed up,the sofa. And I have used it many times. When it rains here I cover my sofa with some throws. It has saved my sofa’s life. But the pillows that came with my sofa are looking bad. So I will get out the Folex and clean them off. I bought some white bar cloths from Amazon with my Folex. I have used some for other things. Then I wash them and use them again. I live in Georgia, and we have orange mud. I have three small dogs. And we have gravel and mud in our backyard. I also used the Folex on the rug I have in my living room. I noticed a stain where one of the dogs got sick. It was reddish in color. And it came out. I love that stuff. I get all the muddy spots on my pillows clean with Folex too. I haven’t met a stain that doesn’t come out with that stuff. I need the deodorizer now.
For anyone who doesnt know about folex i tell you it seems like harry potter made this stuff it has saved my carpet so many ways. My white gloved super squeaky clean mom comes to visit my sons room transformed for her stay, kool aid coke coffee catpuke from a noghtmare 13 kitten disaster for a week, FOLEX GOT THAT CAPRPET SPOTLESS! I was shook to my core with the results i tried every formula before i hunted this down in my area! Ty so much for tips amazing lady momma ❤️ your uploads always awesome
I buy Folex by the gallon. When we moved into our house many years ago, there were stains in the carpet that looked like they'd been there forever. Folex took them out and they need resurfaced. It's the greatest. I put it in my carpert cleaner was with.
Kathryn, I so love your videos but more importantly, your sincerity and energy! Thank you so much for always being here! You, my online friend…..are enough! ❤️🫶🏼❤️
Just bought some Folex for all the kitty vomit spots I haven't been able to fully get out! Fingers crossed! Plus some cat treats for good measure! Also, THANK YOU for your candidness and genuineness. It's truly why I love your videos.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Sheryl. I’m sending hugs to you and praying that you can find comfort and strength with those around you and sweet memories of your daughter to help sustain you.❤️
I've been using folex nearly 10 years. It's taken out oil, grease, and pet stains. It took blood out of a mattress from when my son had mouth surgery and bled on it. It's great!
You’re so cool❤thank you for saying that I am enough ❤that’s a very effective saying ❤I truly love your energy and your hard work at communicating DT finds🎉The Dollar Tree Store is a winner and so are you 🎉
I am super happy. I went into one of my many local dollar trees and saw Dollar Tree Plus signs! We are finally getting them in my area and I am all for it!
I kid you not, right before watching your video my cat threw up on my white shag rug in the frontroom. I didn't even get mad because I knew FOLEX would get the stain out. It got the stain out, and you are right, I had to blot several times with paper towels and there you go, rug is white again. I love FOLEX, the only spot remover I buy.
OMG … thank you for this! Amazing product. One question though- can you show us your floor cleaners one day? It seems you have a LOT of different vacs/shampoo machines. I have carpet and wood floors but am undecided on which vac/shampooed is best. And if no one has told YOU today… thank you for all you do!!
I have not heard of Folex! Looks like a great product! As always, Kathryn, thank you for sharing all of your hard work & hacks with us! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
I am going to order the Folex. My son has a horrible stain on his carpet and I am hoping this will fix it. Thank you so much for what you do your videos have changed my life!
Oh my gosh Folex is my best friend. It took out a curry stain on my heather gray sweater that had been washed and dried 5 times!! I wasn’t expecting that and thought I’d try… I couldn’t believe it!
I bought a Bissell Steamshot after watched an older video of you using it in the kitchen on your trash can. I have been trying to get the courage to clean mine forever. I am so excited to use it!
I've never heard of Folex, but I'm always looking for a GOOD stain remover. I have 4 dogs, and one of them is a senior, so accidents do tend to happen in our home. I use Odoban to get rid of any strong odors and it works like a charm, but I struggle with stains sometimes. A lot of the carpet was ruined by previous renters who didn't clean up after their pets, and children, and/or just didn't bother cleaning in general, so we have removed some of it and replaced it with linoleum, but we do still have carpet in our bedroom, spare room and my nail room. We plan to rip out the carpet in our bedroom, but until we're financially able to do that, I need to find a good stain remover. I'll definitely be looking into Folex!
I can't believe you spilled wine on purpose 😉 My husband spilled a whole glass of red kool-aid on our couch. I used Folex on that and got it out. And used my shampooer to get the excess liquid out. Your tips really do work!🙂
I've not used folex, but I do use vinegar Windex (clear) and have for years. It's less expensive and has worked great. Have you tried it? I've also used scrubbing bubbles. It works well, too.
I have been known to put a paving brick on top of the towel to wick the moisture up. I also have a couple of old torn bath towels I keep just for this purpose.
YES! Cleaning can be such a daunting chore, but you make it look fun with you're very doable tips ☺Thank you! I love my Bissell Crosswave (like the Tineco version) and Folex in my cart next visit to Home Depot
I've been using Folex for years! I love it. I found it when I needed something to clean my kitty vomit (sorry... but it's the best!) It gets the stains and smells out of the carpet (because they never go on the hard floors!).
You aren't kidding that Folex is the bomb! I cleaned a woman's house and she had an open box full of nail polish on a night stand I accidentally bumped into and knocked over while vacuuming. One of the bottles wasn't shut and polish spilled onto the carpeting! I was sweating bullets looking for something to clean it up. I found a bottle of Folex under the kitchen sink and went to town cleaning up the spilled nail polish. Unbelievably, it came of out the carpet, completely, with no trace remaining! Thank goodness she had that bottle under the sink or I would've had to replace the carpet. 😬
Wow! This is new to me. Folex looks ,Ike the product to have. Thank you so much! You haven't aged a bit...blessed. I love your videos and effort. It's contagious! 😉👍❤
Agreed @Shari ...Kathryn doesn't age but her adorable boys are growing up too fast!! Won't be long and they'll be saying "How's the weather down there, Mom?!" like my 15 yr. old 5'8 daughter says to me LOL.
I had heard about folex so I tried it but had no luck with it. After watching your video I'm going to give it another try. Maybe I wasn't using it correctly. Wish me luck because I definitely have alot ot stains that could use help. Thank you.
Ok- I’m sold ! Was going to toss the rug in my art studio- what have I got to lose- it’s 15 + years old. I’m going to get a jug and see what happens! I like the rug& it’s still in good shape… except for a very old stain from cat puke… of course it’s in an obvious place and I have tried everything on it… it seems to have gotten darker with each attempt….. so I’m definitely going to try this.
I have a U shape kitchen and it got up into each corner but it was very dirty when I first got it :) I make lots of popcorn and it's all over the place LOL. it picked it up just fine and cut my husband hair no problem .
Ok so this works! My husband gave me this secret. Take some baking soda (I buy baking soda from the Dollar Tree), apply it liberally on red wine or blood) let stand and the blood or wine stain get absorbed into the baking soda.
I love your videos your happiness is infectious I love to clean and I’m on a very low budget I love these dollar tree hacks it’s 2 am right now as I’m watching u cause I’m having trouble sleeping and u are making me wanna get up and start scrubbing things lol don’t be embarrassed about showing your home it’s mom life we all have it lol love ❤️ ya so much bless your sweet family
I love Folex. I was introduced years ago in Sam's club when they were showing samples. I've been hooked ever since. I use it on carpet and upholstery stains. I might have to start using it for laundry.
I usually clean my persian, silk or cottone carpets in spring or summer because they dry quickly. I put warm water in a bucket then Venish and stain remover, mix it all together and make a foam. I throw the carpets out onto the terrace and take in the steam - under water pressure. I wet the carpets and put foam on the carpet. I scrub with a special carpet broom, which is like a large brush. I wash and little rins the water from the carpets with my feet in a roll and put it over the fence to dry. the next day are carpets look like as new.
Very impressed. I looked online & my local Home Depot carries it. Am going to pick up a bottle to try before buying the gallon jug. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing this info on Folex. I hope they sell it in Canada because I definitely want some and I will be getting some for my adult kids for their messy houses too. 👍❤️
Great tips as always,love it!! But what I really need to know is, where did you get that top!? It's super cute and looks like arm warmers instead of leg warmers. It's really neato!! Thank you
Katherine, you are such a generous awesome person that I genuinely admire her in UA-cam land. You share everything you learn and go to great lengths to do so - exposing your stains and ever creating new ones just for us. I'm in the UK and often hunt for the stuff you recommend and have made many a purchased based off of your recommendations where I can get hold of them... I wish we had a Dollar Tree etc though - we have "poundshop" and "Poundstretcher" etc but they're nothing like you have. Having said that, some things are similar - but Amazon finds you've made are easier to obtain. I just want to say a big "Thank you" to you for working so hard to make our lives easier. You are kind, generous and just an all round awesome person. I don't normally leave such gushing comments for anyone, but I wanted to reach out today to let you know how I appreciate you. Xx P xX

do you think this would work on mattress stains? my cat puked a while back and it soaked through the mattress proctor.

But the pillows that came with my sofa are looking bad. So I will get out the Folex and clean them off. I bought some white bar cloths from Amazon with my Folex. I have used some for other things. Then I wash them and use them again. I live in Georgia, and we have orange mud. I have three small dogs. And we have gravel and mud in our backyard. I also used the Folex on the rug I have in my living room. I noticed a stain where one of the dogs got sick. It was reddish in color. And it came out. I love that stuff. I get all the muddy spots on my pillows clean with Folex too. I haven’t met a stain that doesn’t come out with that stuff. I need the deodorizer now.
For anyone who doesnt know about folex i tell you it seems like harry potter made this stuff it has saved my carpet so many ways. My white gloved super squeaky clean mom comes to visit my sons room transformed for her stay, kool aid coke coffee catpuke from a noghtmare 13 kitten disaster for a week, FOLEX GOT THAT CAPRPET SPOTLESS! I was shook to my core with the results i tried every formula before i hunted this down in my area! Ty so much for tips amazing lady momma ❤️ your uploads always awesome
I buy Folex by the gallon. When we moved into our house many years ago, there were stains in the carpet that looked like they'd been there forever. Folex took them out and they need resurfaced. It's the greatest. I put it in my carpert cleaner was with.
Kathryn, I so love your videos but more importantly, your sincerity and energy! Thank you so much for always being here! You, my online friend…..are enough! ❤️🫶🏼❤️
Just bought some Folex for all the kitty vomit spots I haven't been able to fully get out! Fingers crossed! Plus some cat treats for good measure! Also, THANK YOU for your candidness and genuineness. It's truly why I love your videos.
I just got my Folex. Have not used yet. Our daughter passed this week so my world has been turned upside-down. Thanks for all you do. hugs Sheryl 💙🎨💙
So sorry about your daughter. Devastating. Our thoughts are with you.
Oh, Sheryl, I'm so sorry. I can't imagine. May God give you the comfort that only He can. There are no words, my friend.
🙏🏾💙💙
So sorry for your loss. I hope you are able to surround yourself with supportive friends and relatives.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Sheryl. I’m sending hugs to you and praying that you can find comfort and strength with those around you and sweet memories of your daughter to help sustain you.❤️
I bought it on Amazon. I need to clean a chair in linen. I can hardly wait to get it!!❤❤❤
I got it!! It works!! Fantastic! I’m living proof. Coffee on linen. It worked❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
This was such an informative video. With three dogs and adult children who make a huge mess, this product needs to be added to my supply list.
I picked up a bottle after seeing your video a few months ago and it is magic! It even got off purple hair dye on my bathroom carpet!
I've been using folex nearly 10 years. It's taken out oil, grease, and pet stains. It took blood out of a mattress from when my son had mouth surgery and bled on it. It's great!
You’re so cool❤thank you for saying that I am enough ❤that’s a very effective saying ❤I truly love your energy and your hard work at communicating DT finds🎉The Dollar Tree Store is a winner and so are you 🎉
I am super happy. I went into one of my many local dollar trees and saw Dollar Tree Plus signs! We are finally getting them in my area and I am all for it!
My husband takes heart meds and his blood is impossible to get out. I will definitely try the Foley. Thanks.
Grandma’s will get the blood out
I just discovered this. It is a game changer for my dining chairs that are beige. I have one messy husband and three grandsons - enough said!
I've been using Folex since 2005. I grab the gallon size whenever I am at Lowe's. The best carpet cleaner!
I kid you not, right before watching your video my cat threw up on my white shag rug in the frontroom. I didn't even get mad because I knew FOLEX would get the stain out. It got the stain out, and you are right, I had to blot several times with paper towels and there you go, rug is white again. I love FOLEX, the only spot remover I buy.
Folex is the best! A true miracle in a bottle!!!
OMG … thank you for this! Amazing product. One question though- can you show us your floor cleaners one day? It seems you have a LOT of different vacs/shampoo machines. I have carpet and wood floors but am undecided on which vac/shampooed is best. And if no one has told YOU today… thank you for all you do!!
I have used Folex for the last 10 years. Best stain remover ever! Great for pet stains!
I bought the little steamer because of you and I love it!!!
Wow! Gotta get some Folex! Every home should have it in their cleaning supplies! TFS!
I have not heard of Folex! Looks like a great product! As always, Kathryn, thank you for sharing all of your hard work & hacks with us! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
I love love ,love your show! And the Lysol in the wash is great! Can't wait to try
I am going to order the Folex. My son has a horrible stain on his carpet and I am hoping this will fix it. Thank you so much for what you do your videos have changed my life!
Oh my gosh Folex is my best friend. It took out a curry stain on my heather gray sweater that had been washed and dried 5 times!! I wasn’t expecting that and thought I’d try… I couldn’t believe it!
I bought a Bissell Steamshot after watched an older video of you using it in the kitchen on your trash can. I have been trying to get the courage to clean mine forever. I am so excited to use it!
I've never heard of Folex, but I'm always looking for a GOOD stain remover. I have 4 dogs, and one of them is a senior, so accidents do tend to happen in our home. I use Odoban to get rid of any strong odors and it works like a charm, but I struggle with stains sometimes. A lot of the carpet was ruined by previous renters who didn't clean up after their pets, and children, and/or just didn't bother cleaning in general, so we have removed some of it and replaced it with linoleum, but we do still have carpet in our bedroom, spare room and my nail room. We plan to rip out the carpet in our bedroom, but until we're financially able to do that, I need to find a good stain remover. I'll definitely be looking into Folex!
Absolutely love Folex!! I haven't had a stain it didn't get rid of!
I've used Folex for close to 20 yrs and LOVE it. Absolute best product ever for stains.
This stuff was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I have to get my hands on this product ASAP!!!
I can't believe you spilled wine on purpose 😉
My husband spilled a whole glass of red kool-aid on our couch. I used Folex on that and got it out. And used my shampooer to get the excess liquid out. Your tips really do work!🙂
I’m going to order me some and try it out need if for my pet spots for sure. Thank you Kathryn you are enough. Love y’all !!!!! ❤❤
We Thank and Love You Sis for your post and sharing your secrets that keep our homes Clean
Terri and David..... Corbin Ky
I've not used folex, but I do use vinegar Windex (clear) and have for years. It's less expensive and has worked great. Have you tried it? I've also used scrubbing bubbles. It works well, too.
I have been known to put a paving brick on top of the towel to wick the moisture up. I also have a couple of old torn bath towels I keep just for this purpose.
YES! Cleaning can be such a daunting chore, but you make it look fun with you're very doable tips ☺Thank you! I love my Bissell Crosswave (like the Tineco version) and Folex in my cart next visit to Home Depot
I've been using Folex for years! I love it. I found it when I needed something to clean my kitty vomit (sorry... but it's the best!) It gets the stains and smells out of the carpet (because they never go on the hard floors!).
OMG the folex product had clean my over 25 plus years upholstery chairs stains thank you 🙏🏻 Catherine u r enough 💜u saved me
Love Folex! It’s also a great laundry stain pre-treater as well.
Can you use it on cotton? I have my father in laws funeral flag from the 60's that needs cleaning.
@@joyceprice6749 Yes! Gets out yellowing!
@@joyceprice6749 Yes ma'am... Kathryn used it on a cotton Hanes T-shirt in this video (re: laundry pre-treat) and it worked like magic.
@@shannonmathiscowen8682 Thanks so much. I found the 32oz pray bottle at Lowe's. It was $6.98. Take care and have a good day.
You aren't kidding that Folex is the bomb! I cleaned a woman's house and she had an open box full of nail polish on a night stand I accidentally bumped into and knocked over while vacuuming. One of the bottles wasn't shut and polish spilled onto the carpeting! I was sweating bullets looking for something to clean it up. I found a bottle of Folex under the kitchen sink and went to town cleaning up the spilled nail polish. Unbelievably, it came of out the carpet, completely, with no trace remaining! Thank goodness she had that bottle under the sink or I would've had to replace the carpet. 😬
I got Folex years ago after finding it at my Kirby store in Illinois. It saved my house
And you have to love some thing that does not leave residue, which also leads to more stains
Wow! This is new to me. Folex looks ,Ike the product to have. Thank you so much! You haven't aged a bit...blessed. I love your videos and effort. It's contagious! 😉👍❤
Agreed @Shari ...Kathryn doesn't age but her adorable boys are growing up too fast!! Won't be long and they'll be saying "How's the weather down there, Mom?!" like my 15 yr. old 5'8 daughter says to me LOL.
Never heard of it, but I will be trying this! Thanks 👍🏽😊👍🏽😊
I had heard about folex so I tried it but had no luck with it. After watching your video I'm going to give it another try. Maybe I wasn't using it correctly. Wish me luck because I definitely have alot ot stains that could use help. Thank you.
I love watching you awesome and so positive
Ok- I’m sold ! Was going to toss the rug in my art studio- what have I got to lose- it’s 15 + years old. I’m going to get a jug and see what happens! I like the rug& it’s still in good shape… except for a very old stain from cat puke… of course it’s in an obvious place and I have tried everything on it… it seems to have gotten darker with each attempt….. so I’m definitely going to try this.
Got the Tineco and love it. Thanks for telling us aboutmit. Went to Dollar Tree today and found the Brillo spray awesome. ❤❤ Your videos are the best.
I have the Tineco in my cart and haven't decided yet. Does it get next to the baseboard? What about corners?
I have a U shape kitchen and it got up into each corner but it was very dirty when I first got it :) I make lots of popcorn and it's all over the place LOL. it picked it up just fine and cut my husband hair no problem .
Ok so this works! My husband gave me this secret. Take some baking soda (I buy baking soda from the Dollar Tree), apply it liberally on red wine or blood) let stand and the blood or wine stain get absorbed into the baking soda.
I love your videos your happiness is infectious I love to clean and I’m on a very low budget I love these dollar tree hacks it’s 2 am right now as I’m watching u cause I’m having trouble sleeping and u are making me wanna get up and start scrubbing things lol don’t be embarrassed about showing your home it’s mom life we all have it lol love ❤️ ya so much bless your sweet family
I used to work for a carpet cleaning service in the late 90s early 2000s and we recommend Folex all the time. Great spot cleaner.
Wow I am trying these hacks thank you for sharing beautiful lady❤
I love Folex! I have used it for years and it's the only stain remover that gets out all the stains, old and new. Folex is the best!!
How do you know when to do the "wicking" method versus just scrubbing with your hand or brush? Arlene
I love Folex. I was introduced years ago in Sam's club when they were showing samples. I've been hooked ever since. I use it on carpet and upholstery stains. I might have to start using it for laundry.
Wow, wonder if they still carry it? I'll have to check my area.
Love me some FOLEX! Thx Kathryn.
I usually clean my persian, silk or cottone carpets in spring or summer because they dry quickly. I put warm water in a bucket then Venish and stain remover, mix it all together and make a foam. I throw the carpets out onto the terrace and take in the steam - under water pressure. I wet the carpets and put foam on the carpet. I scrub with a special carpet broom, which is like a large brush. I wash and little rins the water from the carpets with my feet in a roll and put it over the fence to dry. the next day are carpets look like as new.
Very impressed. I looked online & my local Home Depot carries it. Am going to pick up a bottle to try before buying the gallon jug. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing this info on Folex. I hope they sell it in Canada because I definitely want some and I will be getting some for my adult kids for their messy houses too. 👍❤️
I have three young kids and three dogs I have tried everything under the sun 🌞 thanks for the video Im most definitely going to try Folex😊
Such a good idea to use this in a carpet cleaner!!
Great tips as always,love it!! But what I really need to know is, where did you get that top!? It's super cute and looks like arm warmers instead of leg warmers. It's really neato!! Thank you
I have several little mystery stains on my loved area rug. Ordered the Folex because you never steer me wrong. Thank you K!
Katherine, you are such a generous awesome person that I genuinely admire her in UA-cam land. You share everything you learn and go to great lengths to do so - exposing your stains and ever creating new ones just for us. I'm in the UK and often hunt for the stuff you recommend and have made many a purchased based off of your recommendations where I can get hold of them... I wish we had a Dollar Tree etc though - we have "poundshop" and "Poundstretcher" etc but they're nothing like you have. Having said that, some things are similar - but Amazon finds you've made are easier to obtain.
I just want to say a big "Thank you" to you for working so hard to make our lives easier. You are kind, generous and just an all round awesome person. I don't normally leave such gushing comments for anyone, but I wanted to reach out today to let you know how I appreciate you. Xx P xX
I’m a Folex lover for a while. My niece, who is a professional organizer, turned me on to it!
I first found Folex at Bed Bath and Beyond many years ago and have been using it for a long time mostly on carpets and in my car.
