As a follow up to our early post on Homemade Laundry Soap we had to test out several Laundry Stain Pretreaters before one we really liked. Who knew two ingredients could remove stains so well!
Supplies needed:- Glass Jar (we used canning jars and they held up well)
- Laundry Soap Bar (or non-perfume bar, try Fels Naptha or Colgate)
- Hot Water
Instructions:
- Shave the bar of soap just like with the Laundry Detergent until the shavings fill half of the jar. Do not pack them tightly or it will be difficult for soap to melt.
- Fill the rest of the jar with hot water. We used the water out of an electric kettle. Cover with lid.
- Allow the water to melt the soap a bit to soften up then shake. Continue to shake occasionally until all of the soap is dissolved. Once all of the soap is dissolved, allow to cool completely, then it is ready for use.
For use:- Apply to stain and scrub gently.
- For a heavily soiled item allow to set overnight before washing.
