My new BEST friend

FOLEX!!!!!!!!!!


You may have seen this mentioned on other blogs recently but I just had to tell you my story. The other day Carleigh came into the office and said she wanted her toenails painted. I looked down and noticed that she had obviously already tried to do it herself. I immediately asked her if she had it anywhere else knowing full well that somewhere in my house was BRIGHT PINK nail polish!! Sure enough she said "u
h huh" and proceeded to show me where it was. Can you believe it was on the step you see AS SOON you walk into my house. I ran and got the polish remover and cotton balls thinking that it would get out the majoirty of it. It did do a great job soaking most of it up but as you can imagine there was still a relatively large pink spot. That's when I thought about the Folex. I sprayed it on, scrubbed it with my fingers and then rubbed it with a cloth. I had to do this several times and LOTS of elbow grease was involved but can you believe it came out!! Here are the before and after pictures. If you actually live in your house you need to have a bottle of this stuff...it gets out EVERYTHING and it's non-magnetic so the stains don't come back. You can get it at Walmart (did you know that Walmart no longer hyphenates its name??) for around $4!!

Love Folex!!! Our WalMart here in Hendersonville hasn't had it in in a while and now there isn't even a tag for it on the shelf with the other spot removers so I wonder if they are going to stop carrying it. Ashley said her husband found it at Lowes.

I can just picture her now trying to paint her toes.

wow, have never heard of the product! Had that happen at my house when Tif was little. She put nail remover on it and it took the nail polish color AND the color of my carpet out!! LOL...
