- Hi, I'm Julie.
- Hello, I'm Destiny.
- Today, we're gonna tackle a very important issue.
- Tell us.
(laughs)
Tell them.
- Okay, we volunteered to do this,
because we stain ourselves all the time.
And we know, if you're watching this video,
that you do, too.
We wanted to get to the bottom of the mystery.
Do stain remover pens work,
and if they do, which one is best?
- So, Destiny, when was the last time
you stained your clothes?
- This morning.
(laughs)
People who know me, know that I'm like very clumsy.
I fall down the stairs, I fall up the stairs.
And usually when those things happen,
I usually have something in my hand.
Coffee, a bagel, spaghetti.
- It's always like someone else telling me,
like, you got a little something.
- Today, I'm going to stain myself on purpose
to see which instant stain remover works best.
- Let's do this.
- Let's do it.
(upbeat rock music)
We have four stain removers to choose from today.
Let's see the first one and see how it works.
- Let's do it.
- Whip-It!
- Whip-It.
- I've never heard of Whip-It.
- I've never heard of Whip-It, either.
I like the name, so I'm hoping it's a winner.
- I think you just like, whip it out.
Like, that's my thought. - Yeah.
- [Both] Whip it open.
- So, the directions just say,
remove excess residue, apply brush tip to stain,
seems pretty straightforward.
- It smells really potent.
It smells like cleaning supplies.
- Feels like I'm in school, and I'm like coloring.
- It's kind of helping.
It's like lifting some of that tomato-y red.
It's working!
Kinda.
- The verdict's still out in my book.
Oh, I think it's coming out
and I'm just not aware of it.
- So, Whip-It, what did you think?
Did it work for you?
- It got some of it out.
I mean, it's still obviously red,
but less red so far.
- Mine, I kinda focused on like, cut a line through
and it's kind of like looking a lot lighter.
It's not like pure white, but it's pretty close.
- All right, let's see stain remover number two.
Ooh.
Thank you, Santa.
Dryel.
- [Destiny] On-the-go.
- [Julie] (laughs) On-the-go.
- I've never heard of this.
- Just first looking at it,
I'm assuming they're targeting it
for more like, kind of sensitive material.
Just cause it says in big letters,
safe for special care clothes.
So, let's go for it.
So, it just says remove excess residue
from the stain.
While squeezing pen, use scrubber like an eraser
to eliminate stain.
- Oh, you squeeze this one.
That's kind of cool.
Oh, yeah.
- [Julie] Oh, it's really--
- Oh, yeah, Dryel.
- (laughs) Dryel.
- I'm already into it.
- Oh, this is actually getting it out.
- Dryel's it.
- Like, yeah, Dryel's the jam.
I don't know if you know about this guys.
- Dryel, where can I find this?
- Do you guys know about Dryel?
- This is, like, awesome, honestly.
- It's taking the cake, it's taking it out
like immediately.
- Dryel.
- You got me, you get me, Dryel.
- I'm a fan, I'm sold.
- Dryel, so far.
I mean, out of the two we've tried,
Dryel is the jam.
So, if you can see,
that was Whip-It, right here,
and then next to it, Dryel.
So, it's like already, just like instantly.
- Dryel's doing it. - Kinda coming out.
- It is.
- All right, Dryel, so far you're in the lead.
Let's see if the other two
stain removers can ketchup.
(sting sound)
So, what do we got next, Destiny?
- [Destiny] We've got some good old trusty Tide to Go pens.
- I feel like they're the ones that started it.
- I feel like they are, too.
Like, my first time hearing about instant stain remover
was the Tide to Go pen.
- Either they were the first or they got great marketing,
but they're probably the only ones
that I know of by name.
- Do you think it's gonna work?
- Here's the real test, I don't know.
- [Both] We'll see.
- I always smell them, not sure why.
- Maybe this is why you're so clumsy.
You're smelling all the wrong. - Maybe, I've sniffed too
many chemicals. (laughing)
And this is like one of my thickest stains,
so let's see if Tide, let's see what you got.
- You kind of have to press down,
and then like, the Tide--
- Listen.
- The Tide juice. (laughs)
- Tide is already, wow.
Look at that.
Tide is-- - Ooh.
It's pretty good.
- Oh, yeah.
Wow, all right Tide.
I was feeling really loyal to Dryel, but like.
- I don't know.
They're both, like, kind of in a dead heat for me.
I can see why Dryel, they're marketing
was for sensitive clothes, like you don't have to try hard
on your fabric to get it out.
I don't know. - I mean.
- It's working really well.
Dryel might still be winning.
- I'm thinking Dryel.
Like, a close second.
Let's try the last one.
- [Both] Ooh, Shout.
- You know what, I was wrong when I said
that the Tide to Go pens were the only ones
I've heard of, 'cause I have heard of Shout.
I didn't know they cam in wipes, I mean.
- [Destiny] I've never seen that before.
- Wipes seem like pretty convenient, too.
- Yeah, wipe and go.
Treat stains shortly after they occur.
Well, lucky for you, these just occurred.
(laughs)
- [Julie] See.
- Mmm.
- (laughs) There she goes
sniffing more chemicals.
(laughs)
- Listen, I'm just curious, okay?
Not bad.
Oh, I like this.
I like that it's soapy and really moist.
I feel like it could really get the stain out.
- I mean, I feel like some of the pens
were kind of hard to work with,
so I get why someone might want a wipe instead.
- When I spill something, my first instinct
is to grab like a paper towel, wet it,
and then I'm like.
So, I feel like this is what that would be great for.
- [Julie] Oh, this is working really well, actually.
Okay, Shout, I hear you shouting at me.
- [Destiny] Okay.
- [Julie] I hear you.
- I'm not shouting with joy over this Shout.
- I feel like mine is really coming out.
- I feel like this is kind of like
a little bit more work.
Especially if your shirt is on.
- That's true, well, yeah that's true.
If you're wearing it, it's probably not
the best. - Well, I'm usually
staining the shirts I'm wearing.
(laughs)
- I mean, yeah.
Shout's looking really well for me.
- All right, let's see.
- I gotta tell you.
The downside with the wipes is
now your hands have, like, the chemicals
Destiny is sniffing all over them.
- But also, it did help lift.
I will say it helped lift better
than some of the other ones that we used.
- So, here's the Shout, and I think it got
it out really well.
I mean, pretty well in comparison.
It's a dead heat for first place.
In my book, between Shout and Dryel.
- This is the Dryel.
Personally, I think this one worked the best.
The Shout was a close second,
but this just really, as soon as I got in there,
it just started lifting.
And I liked the way it smelled.
- The smell test.
- That's all that matters to me.
Well, you wanna smell good.
- Which was your favorite?
- So, my personal favorite was the Dryel.
When I want to remove a stain,
I want it to be like immediate and effective,
and I think Dryel did the best job.
After Dryel, I think the Shout wipes
did a pretty good job.
I think the Tide to Go pen would be next,
and then the Whip-It also did not really do
a great job of lifting the stain.
- I feel the exact same way in your ranking system.
The last three, actually, were all pretty good.
But between Shout and Dryel,
they both worked pretty well,
but Dryel is just easier to use,
it comes out easier.
You're killing the game, Dryel.
- Yeah, Dryel's the way to go.
- Good on ya.
I'm just, I'm proud of you,
and I'm proud of us
for solving the world's greatest issue.
I'm so happy that we got to the bottom
of this mystery. - Same.
Dryel's the answer.
