Bio-Zet We are using Bio-Zet powder at the moment and like you have become a big fan of it, as you say, easy to pour, does not clump easily, does give really good results in warm water and does not create a mess when you open the box no powder stuck in between the layers of cardboard in the lid...

U.S. Surf Hi Washer 111, I have tried the U.S. Surf quite a while ago,it works pretty well and does not have an overpowering scent from memory. I know what you mean about the Aussie Surf, you would think they were marketing women's perfume with the exotic fragrances it comes in and Fab is the...

Sun products Hi Washer 111, You might try Chemist Warehouse if you have any near where you live, they are stocking the U.S. version of Surf again and it seems to be one of Sun's brands as well. Also they are stocking the U.S. liquid Ajax and I have also seen the U.S. liquid Dynamo, didn't buy...

Using Opera I have had problems with Chrome myself in the recent past, so uninstalled it and have started using Opera browser and so far at least am quite happy with it. Steve.

There are a couple of new products in the market now, I noticed yesterday in the local Woolworths Surf powder with built in fabric softener,which would actually turn me off buying it as I am not a fan of fabric softener, so I hope they are not replacing the whole Surf range with this new formula...

Sno and Calgon Hi guys, Streakers-,36 eh? you don't look a day over 21, actually for a guy who turns 50 next month I do feel pretty good really, must be that working out at the gym twice a week and losing 12kg's in weight has certainly put a spring in my step! Gizmo-Yes that's right it was...

beads of bleach The answer to your earlier question is yes, the beads of perborate were indeed blue, in fact that was a part of the Ajax advertising campaign, "Ajax with it's blue beads of bleach.". Some years later after Colgate-Palmolive acquired the R.M. Gow's brand, they changed it's...

Fab scent Yeah Washer 111, the Fab fragrance is a bit on the exotic side, something called Spice Allure the cleaning is not too bad, although I do find that for some stains it does need a bit of help i.e. prewash spray or Napisan etc. And as mentioned before it does seem to work better in...

How many of my fellow Aussies remember these 2 from the 1980;s I think, please let it be a lot of you otherwise I will know for sure that I am getting too old too quickly.

Fab Just as an aside and sorry to hijack your thread washer 111, at the moment we are using one of the myriad Fab concoctions and am finding it is not too bad when used in warm or hot water. Thanks. Steve.

Drive I remember the old Drive, it was one of Lever and Kitchen's premium brands,my mother tried it one or twice,worked quite well, especially in higher temperatures, was not really suited for cold water washing, It was white and had beads of sodium perborate through the formula and a fair bit...

Amen to towels only Put me down as a towels on their own wash,no way with anything else, or else you will end up with spicks and specks galore on your clothes. I noticed today also that the Tide with Downy was half price at Coles, didn't buy any though went for Fab with Allure Spice. Rapunzel...

Well after finishing off the Woolworths Select Musk and Patchouli powder, we turned our attention to the Aldi brand detergents, being Almat liquid & Trimat Advanced powder. Report card as follows, Very good results when used in a warm everyday wash with both liquid and powder performing quite...

Beautiful unit Hi Leon, A beautiful machine you have there, well chosen, actually if and when the LG Turbodrum departs me and goes to washer heaven I may even go for that machine myself in the 7kg size as I have noticed in various retail outlets you can get the 7 kg for about $100 only more...

ebay maybe Hi Dave these do appear sometimes on ebay,although you need it to ne near where you live. If you like twin tubs, you can get a Haier 6kg,(which I own) and apparently the company called Palsonic have just released 2 new models on the market one is 6.5kg and the other is a very large...

Warm wash and musk Hi Chris,it was a wash with warm water,I figured cold water would not allow the enzymes to work properly, where as hot water would most likely damage the enzymes, it was a half load, just used 3/4 of a scoop. Mich, to be honest I don't really know who makes Woolworths and...

Last shopping time I bought a box of Woolworths Select Clean powder to give a try and found the results were not too bad for a generic brand. It is not as good as Omo,Cold Power Radiant etc, but I feel it actually does give a better clean than other mid range detergents. It comes in an unusual...

L.G. Turbodrum T.L. Mine is my L.G. Turbo drum top loader. around 7 years old now, hasn't missed a beat. does approx 6-8 loads per week

Ajax powder cleanser Hi Peter, yeah I remember Ajax powder cleanser as well, really bleachy type fragrance except if you bought the lemon one, which I think might still be sold actually. I was thinking about the Ajax detergent on the way home from work tonight and after that box the formula was...

For sale on ebay for $15, a box of old Ajax powder with the famous blue beads of bleach!, had one of the best fragrances that I remember and was a powerful detergent as well. If I remember correctly Ajax and Drive at that particular time were the only powders which contained sodium perborate.
