Ordinarily stain molecules are removed in one (or a combination) of these 3 ways: 1. Dissolved and carried away in a water/detergent mixture. 2. Cut into smaller fragments by the stain remover and then carried away. 3. Strongly bonded stain molecules may require a non-aqueous (non water based) strong solvent such as dry cleaning fluid.
