Fountain pens.
I love my fountain pens. If you use them often, it's good to have a good stain remover. I have found that Amodex will remove any ink stain I have ever created without fading the fabric.

For blood/grease stains I use hydrogen peroxide, works great! Everything else I scrub something liquid Tide into it and let it sit for a few hours before washing it in a frontloader with all the options selected! (Prewash, Power wash, extended, rinse plus, etc)

Mine use to be K2R spot lifter. It was especially effective on cooking and salad oil spots. It is no longer available, but another company makes something very similiar.

I don't normally use a stain remover but if i do its for those spot stains like sauce or ink. I use Vanish/Preen Oxy Action if i need to and it does great, it comes in a spray bottle and u just spray it on and give it about a minute or so (which is handy if u do it as ur loading the washer).

Fiesta Oxy Soaker
I use Fiestsa Oxy Soaker for both soaking difficult stains and also put a scoop or two with the detergent as a booster, particularly with underwear,towels and bathmats.
We used to use a great product called Bio-Ad which was in principle the same as Fiesta soaker, but had a mild fragrance and worked a treat, sadly however it was taken off the market some years ago.
Cheers.

Shout Ultra Gel
While you brush the Shout on the stain the stain already disappears!

Power Clean or Greased Lightening
Power Clean or Purple Power is available at most AutoZone or similar stores. Greased Lightening is available at Home Depot or BJ's Wholesale Club. I wet the fabric,spray a genorous amount on, and let it soak in for about an hour. Then wash in the machine. 99% of the time it will not lift out any color. Great stuff for grease and getting your favorite Baseball Caps clean that you can't part with around the sweat band.

I use Zout for light stains and Shout Advanced gel spray. I used to use the Clorox Prewash spray but I cant find it anywhere. And for overall I add the Oyclean liquid detergent booster...does an amazing job on whites coupled with SA8 detergent and trizyme booster.

Here's my arsenal.
L to R:
SA8 Aerosol: Unbeatable for greasy/oily stains. Even removed some set-in ones!
Lestoil: Also excellent (and inexpensive) for greasy/oily stains, but makes load smell of Pinesol.
Spray'n'Wash Stain Stick: Not as good as SA8 products, but it can be applied up to a week in advance of washing, which is convenient, sometimes.
SA8 Liquid Prewash W/Enzymes: Excellent for food/protein/non oil-based stains.

The SA8 Stuff is incredible, but you have to deal with AmQuix people to get it.
I use one called "Goof" for heavy stains, it is designed to get paint and crayon out. For normal stuff, I use good ol Shout spray, or Spray and Wash Stick. For really bad stains, I use a combination of the 3, that hasn't failed me yet.
The Calypso cleans very, very well and I have found that I really don't need stain treaters. It has even gotten old stains out. On really stained clothes, like my 5 year old boy's jeans (usually grass stains), I use the stain treat option and everything comes out find.
