OxyBoost Stain Remover
Insufficient data. Stain removers rarely require PFAS; verify ingredients.
OxyBoost's formulation is not publicly disclosed. Most oxygen-based stain removers are lower concern, but without ingredient transparency, PFAS risk cannot be assessed.

What OxyBoost Stain Remover is made of, ingredients and materials
OxyBoost Stain Remover is a liquid formulation with undisclosed active ingredients; the brand has not published a full ingredient list or safety data sheet in publicly available sources. Stain removers typically contain surfactants, solvents, and oxidizing agents (often hydrogen peroxide or persulfates), but without label disclosure, the specific chemistry and concentration of this product cannot be verified. This opacity makes assessment of skin irritancy, respiratory exposure, and fabric compatibility difficult for consumers.
What’s concerning
Category baseline
The starting point for this type of product, before anything specific to this product is counted.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement from the brand about PFAS in this product.
Surfactant irritancy and allergenicity
Stain removers rely on surfactants; without ingredient disclosure, the type (anionic, nonionic, or amphoteric) and concentration cannot be assessed. Some surfactants cause skin and eye irritation; Truly Free has not published irritancy or allergen data.
Respiratory irritation from volatiles or aerosolization
If the formulation contains solvents or hydrogen peroxide, application (especially spraying) may release irritant vapors. No ventilation guidance or vapor hazard statement is documented for this product; the label is not publicly accessible for confirmation.
Fabric or material degradation
Stain removers, particularly oxygen-based and peroxide products, can bleach or weaken delicate fibers over time or if left undiluted. OxyBoost's name suggests peroxide chemistry, but without concentration and pH data, consumers cannot reliably predict safe application to silk, wool, or color-sensitive materials.
Corrosivity or off-label toxicity from unlabeled actives
If the stain remover contains persulfates, peroxy compounds, or other strong oxidizers at high concentration, accidental ingestion or prolonged skin contact poses corrosivity risk. The absence of a transparent ingredient list prevents pre-purchase hazard screening.
What’s reassuring
Formaldehyde / VOCs
No public testing or allegations of 1,4-dioxane or formaldehyde-releaser contamination exist for OxyBoost Stain Remover. However, undisclosed formulations cannot rule out these as manufacturing byproducts in surfactant or solvent systems.

The brand's record and disclosure
Truly Free's PFAS performance grade is strong (75/100), but the brand maintains silence on PFAS stance and has not publicly committed to PFAS-free formulations or published ingredient transparency. No established certifications (such as EPA Safer Choice, EWG verification, or third-party testing) are on record for this product. The lack of proactive disclosure about what this stain remover contains is inconsistent with consumer-facing transparency expected in the green/clean-product category.
How it compares in its category
Stain removers range from enzyme-based (lower concern for skin irritation) to oxygen-based peroxide systems to solvent-heavy formulas. OxyBoost's name implies an oxygen-based mechanism, which is common and typically lower-concern than chlorine bleach, but without ingredient verification, direct comparison to alternatives with published ingredient lists or third-party certifications is not possible. Most premium stain removers in this segment now disclose surfactant types and pH; Truly Free does not.
If you buy it
Always spot-test on an inconspicuous area of fabric before full application; undisclosed formulations carry higher risk of color loss or fiber damage on delicate textiles. Avoid skin contact and inhalation; use in well-ventilated spaces. Store in a cool place away from children and pets. Follow the label instructions for dilution and dwell time precisely, as misuse of any undisclosed stain remover can amplify irritant or corrosive exposure.
