There are a lot of different fabric detergents out there. Believe me we've tried them all, Synthrapol being our previous go-to, and we want the best for our customers. So, our R&D team went back to the drawing board to develop the greatest laundry sauce for dyers of all time! We started by meticulously studying the chemistry behind cleaning agents and learning how different compounds interact with our dyes. Each formulation underwent extensive testing and we assessed its efficacy in washing out loose dye particles as well as any grime or oils left over on fabrics after the manufacturing process. After hours of hard work and testing, we are proud to introduce: Dharma Dyer's Detergent. A detergent formulated by dyers for dyers. Here's what we love about our detergent: Effective at keeping loose dye in suspension and avoiding back staining when used according to directions. This is important so rogue dye particles don't transfer to the undyed parts leaving them nice and white No perfumes or dyes Neutral pH Smells less intense than other professional detergents Affordable Works as a wetting agent* Removes water soluble sizing (soda ash recommended in addition)** Removes most starches with hot water Made in the USA --- Usage: Use 1/4 cup (2 oz) per full washing machine load for cotton, Rayon, hemp, etc.Use 1/8 cup (1 oz) for silks or if you have a front loading wash machine or high efficiency machine. *Add a couple of drops to your dye bath or liquid tie-dye solution as a wetting agent**For cotton and other cellulose fibers, add 2 tablespoons soda ash per wash load.
