To remove lint off sweaters...Use The Mr. Clean magic eraser Post by Anonymous (1) | (03/17/2008) Contact Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Lint from Clothing Post By erica kaiser-texas (Guest Post) (03/17/2008) Mr. Clean! Mr. Clean! IS THERE ANYTHING THE "MAGIC ERASER" CAN"T DO? The only thing that worked for caked-in fuzz and lint on a 89%acrylic/9%nylon/2%spandex 'super soft' sweater was the Magic Eraser! The inside and outside were both solid caked-in, down in the nap of the sweater. I used the all-white MAGIC ERASER sponge that is "Extra Power" (the box has a hot pink swirl across it). Thank You Mr. Clean! *accept no substitutes! Spend the extra change on the name. It works great!

I'm looking forward to first trying the vinegar in the wash load, and possibly following up with the scouring pad if necessary. Hopefully, that will save my work uniforms and some nicer pants.
