    Tide Original

    Lately I’ve been liking the new Tide Free and GentlePowder. Seems to be good all around. I beef things up a bit.. I weigh it out into a separate container and mix in 10% STPP by weight. For a white load I’ll add about 2 TBLS of pure sodium percarbonate to the machine, along with the dose of my...

    Cigarette Stale OLD smell on comforter not coming out in wash

    I think Eddie means Spic and span powder not the liquid version. It is still available in powdered form and I find it at Ace Hardware. However it dose not have the TPS that it use to years back. That ingredient was replaced with washing soda. Still cleans well though.

    I made soap!

    Supersedes You are correct. A lot of soaps out there claiming to be Castile but are 100% palm oil which is a very basic saturated fat, and palm oils fatty acid profile is very close to lard (pig fat) you end up with a hard biting bar of soap..noting unique. Caster oil use in a small percentage...

    OxyClean “activated”

    Thanks for the last video! Wonder how OxiCkean is getting away with calling their product “activated” since there is no TAED involved. My understanding is that ratios between TAED and sodium percarbonate have to be precise in order for effective bleaching/brighting

    OxyClean “activated”

    Thanks Supersuds for the reply and link to old thread. I don't use OxiClean often as I’ve always purchased pure sodium percarbonate on line. But if OxiClean now has an activated bleaching system..maybe it’s better than the inactivated pure stuff??
