Former chews away at bobbles and helps soften fabrics among other things.

Latter adds extra softness to wash same as back when soaps were queen of wash day.
Remember? Ivory Snow gets clothes softer than detergent. Well that "softness" came from oils and fats used to make soap which leave a residue on fabrics. Early fabric softeners were merely emulsions of tallow (beef fat) and other oils that pretty much did same thing. Nowadays many TOL softeners use surfactant technology instead of or mainly instead of relying upon fats/oils to less affect absorbency of textiles due to aforementioned residue. Over time that soap residue could build up leaving things with "tattle-tale" grey hue.
Local discount shop had Tide F&G with ToD in those huge bottles. As one still had one and one/half jugs of normal Tide F&G still in stash wondered if there was any real difference between two. Comparing MSDS told tale, so that was that.

Have huge amounts of soaps of all sorts in my laundry stash, so that's me sorted.
Cellulase is already present in other detergents in one's stash so there you are. [this post was last edited: 11/3/2024-01:07]
