We&#39;re so sorry to hear that your Tide PODS™ melted on to your hoodie, Kara! Tide products undergo thorough testing to make sure they clean effectively every time when used as directed, so this isn&#39;t the experience we want or expect you to have, and we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to help. <br /><br />Excess residue is often caused by incorrect dosing/dispensing, so be sure to follow the pack instructions for dosing and always place the Pod in the back of the drum before the garments for best results. Additionally, it may be helpful to know that all of our Tide PODS™ are completely water-soluble, so soaking any affected clothing overnight in warm water, and then rewashing the next morning on the hottest temperature permitted by the items care label with no laundry detergent should remove any leftover residue from your fabrics.<br /><br />Your satisfaction is important to us, and we&#39;d love to learn more to be able to assist you further. Please give us a call at (800) 879-8433, any time from 9:00AM-6:00PM EST Monday-Friday, so we can help!
