Question 3 of 6

3. Question

Baby Laundry Soaps do not have enzymes. Why not?

Because baby laundry is not that dirty – usually just food and drool.

Because babies' skin is very sensitive. Skin is made of protein and enzymes are used in soap to break down proteins. Soap doesn’t know the difference between stains and skin.

Baby laundry soap should not have any scent.

Baby laundry detergents only need softeners, nothing else.

4. Question

What is the difference between chlorine bleach and an oxygen whitener?

Oxy whiteners are non-toxic and can be used on colored fabric. Chlorine bleach is a toxic chlorine-based optical whitener that can only be used on white fabric.

Chlorine bleach can only be used in hot water, but you can use the oxy whiteners in all temperatures of water.

Oxy whiteners are only for sheets and towels, and chlorine bleach can be used on all sorts of laundry.

Chlorine bleach is only used with softeners – do not use oxy whiteners with softeners as it will turn brown.

Question 5 of 6

5. Question

Why don’t you add softeners to a laundry load of towels?

Softeners are scented and most people don’t want their towels to be scented.

Softeners are meant to stay in the fabric. When it stays in towels, they don’t absorb water very well.

Towels can get brown really fast. Softeners get burnt in the dryer and turn brown.

Softeners counteract the oxy whitener action, so the stains don’t come out.

Question 6 of 6

6. Question

Why is Dawn Dish Soap such a great laundry aid?

Dish soaps help soften towels without added scent.

Dawn Dish Soap can “bleach” like chlorine bleach – but on colored fabrics.

Dawn Dish Soap is designed to break down grease and oils. Lots of laundry has body oil, oil from greasy foods, or sweat, and using a dish soap breaks it apart so the laundry detergent can wash it away.

Dawn Dish Soap acts like a delicate soap for washing feather down comforters and coats. This is important because if you miss this step, the blankets stay flat and not fluffy. You add the soap to the softener dispenser so it stays in the fabric.
