    Nature's Miracle. Used it on a pair of capris. one of my kitties was angry with me and decided to let me have it. Soaked it in nature's miracle and it removed the cat pee smell altogether. Final test was the sniff test from all the other cats. And it passed. Yes it will get rid of sweaty smell too. Just make sure to wash with regular detergent afterwards to wash out the Nature's Miracle. It seems to leave residue of some kind if you don't. My capris smell and look like it was never sprayed by a cat.

    Oh the product can be found in pet supply stores. Bit pricey but its the only thing that will remove something as potent as cat pee or day old tomato juice stain.

    Well dang, I'm sure that's not what my parents used to use when they cleaned off chicken skeletons to practice re-assembling them...

    I can't remember what they did use though. I seem to recall a faint odor of bleach.

    I ended up purchasing Win from Sport's Authority in 'hopes' that it would do what it is touted to do and get the burned-in stink out of my bras and technical T's. Did it work? Nope! Nada! Of course, I'm not surprised at all now that I've read it's just detergent with oxyclean added to it. No surprise at all, since I've already tried oxyclean to no avail.

    In the most recent Bicycling Magazine, there was a "stinky" article that made mention of a new detergent called "No Sweat". Here's the link: http://www.nosweatlaundry.com/ It says that it completely gets out ALL of the bacteria via a hydrogen peroxide route. The article also said that you can just 'add' hydrogen peroxide to your regular detergent, but it doesn't say how 'much' to add. Hm, I wonder?

    I'm very intrigued by the mention of Nature's Miracle on here. I actually keep that stuff around b/c of my pets. Never even thought to give that a shot. Thanks for the advice!

    My hubby's work out clothes are pretty stinky and it builds up. Febreeze for the laundry does take it out. I find the Febreeze to be kind of expensive.
