Using a plastic bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use Tide per gallon of water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a WHITE towel to keep it totally submerged. Discard your soak solution appropriately when you're finished. Wash in warm water. Air dry. Repeat the procedure, if necessary.

Detergent is a compound, or a mixture of compounds, intended to assist cleaning. Any thing then that is used for cleaning, can be called detergent. For example, if plain water is used for cleaning, it is a detergent - technically. \n\nHence, soap and shampoo are under the term detergents since they are used for washing and cleaning. Specifically, they both contain surfactants that clean by stripping oil and dirt from our skin, clothing, and/or hair. The difference between the two, however, is that surfactants in shampoo are milder than the one in soap. Soap bonds to oils with such affinity that it removes too much if used on hair. Shampoo uses a different class of surfactants balanced to avoid removing too much oil from the hair.

I love liquid Tide with bleach. (You can use it on colors too.) If you use this along with outdoor fresh Bounce dryer sheets, your laundry will smell clean and fresh for days!

what kind of detergent do you use when your clothes are dirty?

First you could look at the label and see if it contains any potentially harmful chemicals to plants, such as sodium, boron, and chlorides or mineral nutrients that plants require, such as potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus, \nmagnesium, calcium, sulfate, etc. Most detergents no longer contain high levels of phosphorus, because phosphates in detergents were once a major water pollution problem.\n\nAnother thing to do is to contact the manufacturer and ask if they have any information on its effects on plants. Many products have a toll-free phone number on the package. \n\nIf you have access to an electrical conductivity (EC) meter, an EC reading on the wash water might indicate if there was a problem with high salinity. \n\nDo a web search for gray water, because many environmentalists advocate using laundry water, bath water, etc. for plant irrigation.

Go to the local grocery store, and look for "washing soda" in the cleaning supplies section.  If you look at the fine print on the box/bag, it may say "Sodium Carbonate" or "Sodium Carbonate Decahydrate" \n\nHave fun, and good luck with the experiment!

On cloth, most stains like dirt, etc. are non-polar.  Laundry detergent\nis made up of non-polar surfactants which help to dissolve the stain and make it soluble in water.  As you may remember from chemistry, like dissolves like.

In the 1920s, Americans used soap flakes to clean their laundry. The flakes performed poorly in hard water, leaving a ring in the washing machine, dulling colors, and turning whites gray. Procter & Gamble began an ambitious mission to change the way Americans washed their clothes. Researchers discovered two-part molecules which they called synthetic surfactants. Each part of the "miracle molecules" executed a specific function--one pulled grease and dirt from the clothes, while the other suspended dirt until it could be rinsed away. In 1933, this discovery was introduced in a detergent called "Dreft," but it could only handle lightly soiled jobs. The next goal was to create a detergent that could clean heavily soiled clothes. That detergent was Tide®. \n\nCreated in 1943, Tide detergent was the combination of synthetic surfactants and "builders." The builders helped the synthetic surfactants penetrate the clothes more deeply to attack greasy, difficult stains. Tide was introduced to test markets in October 1946 as the world’s first heavy-duty detergent. Consumer response was immediate and intense. Tide detergent outsold every other brand within weeks. It became so popular that store owners were forced to limit the quantity purchased per customer. \n\nTide detergent was improved 22 times during its first 21 years on the market, and Procter & Gable still strives for perfection. Each year, researchers duplicate the mineral content of water from all parts of the United States and wash 50,000 loads of laundry to test Tide detergent’s consistency and performance.

I have used a clean and clear soap for many years!  It is awesome and I highly recommend it.  I don't remember the exact type of soap, so here's what the bottle looks like, and you can't miss it.  It's an orange soap in a clear bottle with a dark purple pump.  You won't regret this $3.50 purchase, but make sure you are washing your face for a full 30 seconds.  That's why they recommend singing the happy birthday song when you wash your hands and face.  Many people don't wash long enough for washing to be effective.  Best of luck to you!

Laundry detergents remove stains in a least 5 different ways :\n\n1. Most laundry detergents are alkaline. Being alkaline, they effectively act to saponify vegetable and animal fats and oils (turning the oils into a soap in the process) which are soluble/dispersable in water. So, things like sweat and sebum (skin oil) present in collar and cuff stains are partially solublised by the alkali.\n\n2. Laundry detergents contain a variety of different surfactants (sometimes called "tensides") that make the water "wetter" allowing the water to penetrate the stains, oils and soils present in dirt. The surfactant then bundles the dirt up in a little ball (called a miscelle) and floats it off the surface of the fabric.\n\n3. Many detergents contain a bleaching agent - usually either sodium percabonate or sodium perborate, which form hydrogen peroxide when dissolved, or sometimes a product like "chlorinated trisodium phosphate" which forms hypochlorite bleach when dissolved. These bleaches act on stains to decolourise them via oxidation.\n\n4. Most detergents contain a blend of enzymes which help to break down stains. Usually there is :\n\nA protease - which helps to break-down proteins (found in sweat, food stains, grass stains, etc).\n\nAn amylase - which helps to break-down sugars and starches\n\nA lipolase - which helps to break-down fats and oils.\n\nSome more modern powders also contain an enzyme known as "care-zyme", actually a cellulase, which helps to breakdown cellulose. Now, cotton is a cellulosic material so the addition of this enzyme works by breaking down part of the material it is cleaning. Luckilly, the enzyme is only capable of working on VERY fine bits of cellulose - no more than a few microns - so the result is that "carezyme" sort of dissolves the "fluffy bits" (known as "prilling") which you find on older clothes - the clothes wind up looking newer and cleaner!\n\n5. Most detergents contain  "optical brighteners" - compounds which absorb UV light and re-emit the light in the visible spectrum (usually at the blue end - to give a "blue-white" look which westerners regards as "clean" - but in some countries - Brazil, for example - they are tailored to give a "red-white" which is regarded as "clean" in those countries).\n\nThese five different and distinct parts of the powder act synergistically to give better cleaning than "soap and water".
