Summary for didi 7 stain remover Discussion
Didi 7 stain remover is the focus of this thread, and the main issue is that readers could not find it in U.S. stores after it had been temporarily discontinued. Martin Burnett asked for Didi 7 or HP 9000 non-chlorine bleach products because Oxiclean and similar cleaners were not working for him. Ted Mooney replied that Didi Seven had been seen on Amazon and HP 9000 on eBay for a time, but not consistently. The editors also warned readers not to trust anonymous testimonials, noting that one posting appeared to come from a competitor using a fictitious name. Later, job Jo said she remained an avid fan of Didi7 when used according to instructions and recommended testing it on an inconspicuous area first, while Robin MacKesson again asked where to buy Didi Seven Ultra super concentration cleaner. The thread’s practical takeaway is that availability was spotty, but the product was later noted as widely available again.
This thread may confuse the uninitiated because didi 7 is an old-line product which was temporarily discontinued. During that period, old stock which vendors had accumulated was being sold as a hard to find boutique product, and posters here were looking for it. It is now widely available again: didi 7 ⇦ on

Q. Looking for Didi 7 or HP 9000 non-chlorine bleach products. They work great but have seemingly disappeared from shelves in the US. Oxiclean and similar products just don’t do the job.

A. Hi, Jos. Unfortunately, once you’ve bleached something, you’ve bleached it.
Although it may be possible to “re-dye” the item, sorry there’s no way to “unbleach” it.

 | RE: DiDI 7 The last comment here is from 2009 but I am curious as to why. This is the second time I have used it and the 2nd time it has left fade/bleach marks. I have tried gojo and goop (automotive hand cleaner), WD-40 ⇦ on or Amazon [affil link] FOREWARNING, this is a dangerous cleaner when used for clothes. I am going to put it by the sink used after we have worked on cars. Hopefully the cleanser will not cause rashes or burns on our hands. — Maybe double rinse your hands… forewarned is forearmed. SJ Coh In regards to the Didi 7 bleaching comment. I’ve worked in the cleaning and maintenance industry for 27 years and have seen the damage done by Didi7. It is a great product if used properly and in the correct application. Didi7 will bleach clothing and carpets. I used to see bleached carpets at residences during the 80’s & 90’s when didi7 was really selling a lot of product. Two of the main types of stain removers work by either “adding” oxygen to a stain or reducing oxygen “reducers”. The type that adds oxygen is the safest. The type that removes or reduces oxygen is acidic and can easily bleach out fabric and carpet. Most carpet cleaning companies use both products but they are for skilled trained professionals only. Personally I would suggest using [deleted by editor], it has the highest percentage of actual ingredients and no useless fillers. All natural too. Thanks
We almost feel like undeleting the name of his product so you can see what kind of outfit offers it :-)

Ed. note — Readers: please don’t trust “testimonials” from strangers on the internet!! We learned from the IP address and other evidence that the above posting was actually submitted with a fictitious name by the owner of a company which competes against Didi Seven; we don’t have enough info to know whether the other complaint just above it was also fictitious, but it sounds similar enough in tone to believe so :-)
I am an avid fan of Didi7 if properly used and according to instructions (test it on an inconspicuous place first). I had it for approx. 7 yrs, used sparingly, but now I ran out and cannot seem to find it anywhere. Will check with my german relatives — I sure do miss it, especially on my latest blueberry stain on my favorite white pants. I have tried them all, still like didi7 ⇦ on
eBay or
Amazon [affil link]
best for its results. job
