So you need something to remove the protein completely. |
I was googling this subject to find out how the process works. Someone mentioned "heat transfer" where the heat helps to absorb(?) the stain onto the white towel.
I did use the NM (advanced formula) several times on that spot but could still see it with the black light. Not sure about the smell but the peroxide definitely took the stain away at the very least.
