Good to know Stefan !  A starting point. I push that by testing in actual conditions of dirty clothes in the water, depending on the dirt level ph can fluctuate wildly.   With dirty laundry I like to see around 10  

Stan that is part of it but if you read up, you will see the "new" surfactants I was talking about that have been built with longer chain fatty acids , the longer  the better in cooler water. So its a combination of both. I need to order more PH strips to test this new detergent and see where...

@frigilux SO cool to hear that !!!      @petek you don't know what you are missing !  

Bob, thats great you have two options for Tide to your door! Steve let us know your impressions of the Downy.   The only fabric softener I would ever rave about was a forgotten one that Jeffadelpi got in  a jug from some giant factory in the mid west. Would love to find that again !! Again it...

Next project after the Bendix is... The Savage Washer-Dryer     For those collectors already out there, I found the current belt number for repair - 1926-1945 Savage took a Gates 2310 but that has been super-seeded by a 4L310. On order.

@petek can you order through Staples? I got mine in a day as Quill is their online store.    

Launderess Thanks for the link !!! Will do  BUT Launderess there were live turds in that video !! LIVE !!!   Oh deer gawd I can't unsee it now....     And I'll say it here, I'll never believed Mike Rowe is STR8 !!!

I had one for Artey for years But my house was isolated, what bothered me most is if another dog gets in yours can't escape. That never happened but what did happen - Dumb Daddy put Artey in the truck for a drive AND LEFT THE COLLAR ON HIM! Well as soon as I was backing over the drive he...

Hi Steve! I got a strong scent today of TIDE PRO, my sense of smell is coming back ! Ive been a flu victim lately! It was in my 1961 GE top loader and suddenly I remembered Blue Cheer from the 60s. This TIDE to my head is not sweet its on the chemical side which I prefer. The only...

Brisnat81 HAhahahaahahahahah yes I will apply myself now. A 4-6 test sounds good ! But there is no cold washing in the Bendix,hot is HOT and MED is HOT !LOL Mr Boilwash I understand now why you were discussing Tide with bleach. They are all similar formulas. The chemicals I mentioned were...

Mr Boilwash I may have not been clear earlier but I was comparing TIDE PRO LIQUID to TIDE PRO POWDER. 2 different animals entirely. The chemicals I have been tracking that P&G has been developing and testing for colder temperatures are: C10-16 Alketh THe Polyacrylates c16-18 Fatty Acids (...

Not sure what you mean Mr Boilwash IS the Tide with bleach a powder ? Bob can you check the water temp after the fill is off and the clothes have tumbled a minute or two??

HHAHAH nothing like a GAY Beverage at the end of the day

Thank you Appnut! Mother Superior has a point on temperature! Inside the Industry Cold is between 65-80 degrees. So washing at 100 would be warm. And as MS has tutored me before, think of all the solid metal inside your machine that has to come to temperature??? You start at 100 and BANG your...
