We love Lifehacker. Its recent post clued us in to this awesome website by the University of Illinois dedicated to compiling solutions for stain removal. If you spend any amount of time in the kitchen, you will inevitably spill something on your clothes or your apron. Spilled ketchup on your shirt? Check out their suggestions based upon if you stained a washable fabric, carpet, or upholstery. Coffee? No problem. Mustard? Check it out.

Of course, the website it not limited to food-based stains. You can find removal instructions for: concealer, deodorant, and wax - plus many more.

We might suggest this page and this page for Chuck and Marcus.
