FAQS

Is it safe to put Pine-Sol in laundry?
Generally yes, but here are a few things to keep in mind: Pine-Sol Multi-Surface Cleaner is recommended for colorfast items only. If you are unsure if your fabric is colorfast, apply a drop of product to a hidden part of the item (be sure to test all colors). Wait 5 minutes, then rinse with water. Allow the item to dry completely and check for a color change. No loss of color means the item can be safely laundered with Pine-Sol.
