Frequently Asked Questions — Stain & Dirt Removal from Clothes
What is Luniva and what does it do?
Luniva is an active enzyme-powered stain remover designed for tough everyday stains including curry, grease, makeup, collar grime, food, blood and sweat. The active enzyme technology breaks down stains at the molecular level rather than masking them.
How do I use Luniva active enzyme stain remover?
Spray Luniva directly onto the stain, let it sit for 1–3 minutes, then wash at 40°C for best results. No pre-soaking or rinsing required before washing.
Is Luniva safe on coloured fabrics?
Yes. Luniva is specifically formulated to be colour-safe. The active enzyme formula targets stain molecules without affecting fabric dyes. We recommend testing on a hidden area first for delicate fabrics.
Does Luniva remove grease and makeup stains?
Yes. Luniva is highly effective on grease, cooking oil, butter, foundation, lipstick and other makeup stains, as well as protein and pigment stains like curry and blood.
How do I remove dirt from clothes?
To remove ground-in dirt and mud from clothes, let any wet mud dry completely first and brush off the loose soil. Spray Luniva active enzyme stain remover directly onto the dirty area until the fabric is saturated, work it in gently with your fingers and leave for 1–3 minutes, then wash at 40°C as normal. Luniva's active enzymes break down the proteins, oils and pigments that bind dirt to fabric fibres — no bleach or scrubbing required, and safe on cotton, polyester, denim and most coloured fabrics.
Does active enzyme stain remover work on blood stains?
Yes — blood is a protein stain, which is exactly what active enzyme stain removers like Luniva are designed for. The protease active enzymes break apart the protein chains in blood so they can be rinsed away. Rinse the stain in cold water first (never hot, which sets the stain), spray Luniva directly on, leave for 3–5 minutes and wash at 30–40°C. Luniva also lifts dried-in blood — repeat the treatment once if needed.
How long should I leave stain remover on clothes before washing?
Leave Luniva on the stain for 1–3 minutes for fresh light stains, and 5–10 minutes for older, set-in or stubborn stains like blood, curry, grease and sweat. Do not let the product dry out completely on the fabric — keep the area slightly damp by re-spraying lightly. Always wash within 30 minutes of treating, and never tumble-dry the garment until you have confirmed the stain is fully removed, as heat will set any residue permanently.
Can Luniva remove old, dried-in or set-in stains from clothes?
Yes. Luniva is highly effective on dried-in and previously washed stains, including curry, grease, makeup, blood and sweat yellowing. Saturate the stain, gently rub the fabric to work the formula into the fibres, leave for 5–10 minutes, then wash at 40°C. Very old stains may need a second treatment — most lift completely after one or two applications.
Will Luniva remove stains from white clothes without bleach?
Yes. Luniva restores brightness to white shirts, collars, cuffs and bedding without any bleach, chlorine or optical brighteners. The active enzyme formula targets the sweat, sebum, food and protein residues that cause yellowing and breaks them down at the molecular level — giving cleaner whites without weakening the fibres.
Is Luniva safe to use in a washing machine and on baby clothes?
Yes. Luniva is a pre-treatment spray applied directly to the stain before the garment goes into the machine — nothing goes into the drum or detergent drawer. It is compatible with all standard washing machines, dermatologically tested, free from bleach and harsh solvents, and safe on baby clothes, bedding and items worn next to sensitive skin (always wash the garment before wearing).
