The yellow bottles contain lemon scented cleaning vinegar. Great in the last rinse.

I have used the SA8 Foralloysius good product. Only stopped it because the person I got it from relocated.
This is an old box, after I bought it the formula was changed, I heard it is not as good as it was. Besides that the Amway company is not a company I would want to purchase regularly from, they have extreme conservative views that don't go well with my opinions and lifestyle so to say.

Oh that's interesting to know as I always thought they were liberal minded lol The appeal of there detergent was that there was no fillers in them hence why I tried it.

Well I am self proclaimed Atheist so there views wouldn't mix with mine. Gave up religion when I was 12 lol They sell good products but like you say they are a bit old fashioned.

In the UK we have Ariel in wash boosters, identical to the Tide ones you have apart from the liquid portion is a different colour. There are two versions, one for normal laundry and one for whites. I use the one for whites on my whites, I really like them.

There was a time that Ariel was so good, it didn't need any boosters at all!

Yeah you don't see Persil bringing out add on products do you. I think Ariel Ultra/Futur was better than what we have now personally. Seemed to tackle stains better.
I started using Ariel in 1982, with the blue logo instead of the green one. It contained phosphates and cleaned like nothing else!

Boosters.
Use them as one does the soon to be depleted and discontinued Spray n Wash "Pink" tablets. That in loads when using vintage or other detergents that lack enzymes and or oxygen bleach. For this purpose they work rather well in added the extra "oomph" to get things clean.
While not really needed with a good activated oxygen bleach and enzyme containing powder detergent such as Persil or Tide, the purpose of these pods is mainly for use with liquid or gel detergents that do not contain bleaches. Tide has adverts showing a bottle of Tide "Vivid" + the stain booster packets. The small amount of washing soda some of these pods contain is just enough to boost the pH level of wash water (alkaline) to provide better cleaning of some soils and stains. Again this is mostly for liquid detergents that tend to be near neutral.
With liquid or gel detergents almost totally replacing powders in some markets you can understand the need for this sort of product.

Someone correct me if I am wrong but didn't Ariel Ultra/Futur contain phosphates too? I don't remember the blue logo only except on Handwash powder.
Ultra/Futur had a green logo. The green logo meant no phosphates.

Oh in that case Ariel been using zeolites for some years then before Persil. Sodium tripolyphosphate was in Persil colour tablets and Persil Bio with the gel when they were first launched but now are completely zeolite.
Yeah you don't see Persil bringing out add on products d
Persil did have an add on product, but it was a disaster and very, very quickly pulled from the market.

It must have been pulled off the market pretty quick as I never saw it in the supermarkets.
