    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...

    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 (...

    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...

    Cold water washing has arrived

    Having developed my own detergent; Rosalie's Zero Suds; and always recommended hot or warm wash I was gobsmacked to try New Tide Professional. The claim is professional stains gone in 1 wash in COLD. Now normally I would brush this off, but I know P&G have been in the lab these last two years...

    Rescued! 1948 Gyramatic in good restorable condition!

    Well It was back to Docrtine this week, the machine failed to power the tub on wash or spin. So the whole motor set had to come out and be disassembled. We were looking for missing woodruff keys, broken gears any thing. It also would not shift down into tumble just stayed in spin. All that...

    the tools John E found if you can solder off the can top on the timer you can get in and re-lubricate the gears. As long as you see the windings are not open, then its probably dry bearings. Tuf Oil is always in my kit it lubricates and bonds to the metal. But a new rust buster has come to...

    Brisnat81 I have not seen yet what the measurement is, I have a special manual on just the soap dispenser, when I read it I'll report back. What surprises me is there are to levels, one for the soak cycle, and one for the wash cycle. AS you can see the wash button was crushed when the machine...
