Have you ever been out to eat for an important date, only to spill sauce or your beverage on your shirt or pants? It’s a social blunder that’s hard to recover from, especially if the stain is noticeable. However, what’s even worse is the fact that you have to properly wash the article of clothing to make sure the stain is removed and you can wear it again!

This takes a lot of effort if you really think about it: most people will simply throw the article of clothing into their washing machine, which actually takes a lot of effort, energy, and money over time! The average American household consumes over 13,000 gallons of water a year on washing clothes alone, so you can imagine how that affects your utility bill and the environment.
