Detergents and Additives
Quantity Of Detergent To Be
Used
Ink: depending on the type of ink,
moisten the fabric first with acetone (*),
then with acetic acid; treat any residual
marks on white fabrics with bleach and
then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover,
methylated spirits or benzine, then rub
with detergent paste.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
Good washing results also depend on
the choice of detergent and use of the
correct quantities to avoid waste and
protect the environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents
contain substances which, in large
quantities, can upset the delicate
balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on
the type of fabric (delicates, woollens,
cottons, etc.), the colour, washing
temperature and degree of soiling.
The type and quantity of detergent will
depend on the type of fabric, load size,
degree of soiling and hardness of the
water used.
Information on hardness of the water in
your area can be obtained from the
relevant water supply company, or from
your local authority.
Follow the product manufacturers’
instructions on quantities to use.
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness.
Use less detergent if:
you are washing a small load,
the laundry is lightly soiled,
large amounts of foam form during
washing
