Big things are ahead for Stain Solver in 2026, and we’re excited to share an update with our loyal customers.
In early January, Josh, Luke, and Matt officially purchased Stain Solver, and we’re moving quickly to get the online store back up and running so we can start fulfilling orders again. We expect the store to be live before the end of February 2026 if everything falls into place as expected, and we can’t wait to see your next round of before-and-after photos.
We’re still early in the process (we don’t even have an official email address set up yet), but we’re working nights and weekends to get everything moving again the right way.
The 1995 story continues...
Stain Solver was originally brought to market in 1995 by a syndicated newspaper columnist, Mr. Carter, known for "Ask The Builder." He developed the product after discovering the effectiveness of oxygen bleach while researching ways to clean wooden decks.
The Negen family purchased Stain Solver from Mr. and Mrs. Carter in 2022, running it successfully for several years.
Josh Glikin and Luke Golueke used Stain Solver as customers for years. Like they did every six months or so, they came to the website to buy more and learned that the store was out of stock and the company was for sale. Quickly, Josh, Luke, and Luke's brother Matt formulated a plan to purchase the company in September 2025. In January of 2026, Stain Solver was purchased.
This is truly a story of keeping a great product alive by people who loved its effectiveness so much that they wanted to buy it!
Thanks for your patience, support, and commitment to keeping your world clean and stain-free!
