I Detergents I
Detergents come in many types and forms. Regardlessof the type it is important to read the manufacturer's instructions and use the correct amount. The proper amount to use depends on several factors: a. size of load; b. degree of soil; c. hardness of the water; and d. amount of water, Most manufacturer's instructions are for washing an average load with average soil in 16 gallons of water with average hardness (5 grainsper gallon). Therefore, moredetergentwill be needed if any of the following exists: a. load size is extralarge, b. clothes are heavily soiled, c. water hardness is above average, or d. amount of water selected was morethan HIGH. Usingtoo little detergent results in a poor wash, while usingtoo much causes oversudsing.

[ Fabric Softeners]
Fabric softeners are designed to reduce static electricity, make fabricssofferand fluffier, and minimizewrinkling. Thethree typesare: rinse-added, dryer-added, and detergents with fabric softeners.

Rinse - Added Fabric Softener
These softeners should only be used in the final rinse cycle. They should not be used with soap, detergent, bleach, water conditioners or otherlaundry productsin the rinsewater. If usedtogether, they will react and cause a white sticky residue to appear on clothes. This is sometimes mistaken for lint. The fabric softener must be diluted according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Add fabric softener to the dispenser after clothes have been added to the washer. Dryer - Added This type of fabric softeneris added to the dryer along with the load of clothes. It may be in the form of a softener impregnatedtear-off sheet or a slow dispensing packet. Note: Avoidoveruseof fabric softeners.Too muchfabric softenercan make clothes, such as diapers and towels, non-absorbent. If this occurs, decrease the amount of fabric softener used or occasionally omit using it. If fabric softener comes in contact with fabrics, it may cause a stain.To remove,wet fabric and rub the stained area with a bar of soap and wash items again.

Non-phosphate
As phosphate content is controlled by law in some areas, most detergentsare non-phosphate.Some granularnon-phosphatedetergents may be difficult to dissolvein cold water. They may also react with the hardness minerals in the water to deposit a white "lint like" residueon clothes as well as washer parts. For best results with non-phosphate detergents follow these

suggestions: 1. Wash garments in the hottest water safe for the fabric. 2. Pretreatstains and heavilysoiled itemsbefore placingthem in the washer. 3. Follow the detergent package instructionsfor the amount to use. 4. Add the detergentto the washer first, then add the load of clothes to be washed. Close the lid and fill the washer with water. 5. In some instances, soft or softened water may help. Liquid or Powder Detergent Powdereddetergentsgenerallyprovidegood resultsfor mostlaundry loads. Liquiddetergentsare particularlyusefulforcoldwaterwashing, for washing lightly soiled loads and for pretreating spots or greasy soils,

I Presoak

I

Presoak productshelp to breakdown certain typesof soils and stains into simple forms which can be removed more easily by the other detergent ingredients and the washing action. Washing products containingenzymesare effectiveon protein-typestainssuch as blood, baby formula, milk, meat juice, diaper soil, grass, etc. Enzyme presoak products are most effective when they have time in which to work. Clothes should soak for at least 30 minutes and it is helpful sometimes to soak clothes for several hours.

High suds or low suds?
Moundsof suds are not necessaryfor clean clothes. Too many suds can hamperwash action. The presenceof suds does notindicate the correct amount of detergent being used. In very soft water a low sudsingdetergentmay be necessaryin order to useenough detergent to clean clothes,

Prewash

/ J

Prewash spray productsare helpful in removing collar soil, and other stains. Follow package directions. Use caution when using prewash spraysbecause they can remove markingsfrom dials and buttonson appliances,paint from walls and cabinets, or soften fingernail polish.

I Soaps I I i
Soap should not be used unless your water is very soft (0 - 3 grains of hardnessper gallon). In hard water (above 3 gpg) soap combines with water hardness minerals to form a scum of film. This deposit is very hard to rinse out and can build up on clothes causing them to become gray, dingy and greasy feeling. 10
