Even when we shined a flashlight on the embossed measurement lines inside the cap, they were hard to make out. nine times in the past 10 years, the battle for the top spot in the legal advisory league tables has been more open. It’s used in many industries—not just for measuring stains, but also, for example, for color matching paints or plastics.It also performed better than any other detergent on carbon, but we didn’t count the results from that stain in making our pick because we don’t think it’s as meaningful as the others.

However, they did not do as well as powders or liquids in our 2017 tests, and they have been known to stain clothing when not dissolved properly.
