Don't think you will find Tide Pro powder with Oxy any longer, but if you do its fabulous on whites.

Tide pro oxi I just seen on amazon for 42 bucks a box. Something to look into. Persil universal pearls are another great option. It’s on amazon as well.

Larisa, Thanks. I haven't seen it on Amazon for a long time.

I know it's not cheap but it's good stuff.

Can I just use the above Tide and just wash the tank in hot water on the stove?

Mama I am glad to see you posting, my thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

I know it's not cheap but it's good stuff.

Pricing it alongside the various pods being sold it is pretty competitive, only 30 cents a load. The boxes are pricey but that is because they are 15 lbs +.

I just bot a new box of Tide With Bleach powder yesterday. I'm not going to drag my bod downstairs to see if the formula is changed because I am chicken!

I bought the Tide Professional, hopefully it has not been changed. It sounds like it is just as much work to do a quick wash in the sink as an actual wash of a shirt or two, so I may start just washing the white tank tops and a few other items by hand.

Pat I'd be interested to hear if your formula has been changed whenever the fowl departs lol.

The back of the TWB is likely going to list same ingredients as it always has. It lists enzymes without saying which enzymes. So if one was removed or changed it would still say enzymes. If the surfactant changed it would still say surfactant.

Tide Pro with Oxy has a ton more Sodium Percarbonate than regular TWB. The PH is also lower in the Pro formula this is because hotels ect are washing linens daily and need to cut back some of the aggression to preserve the linens longer.

Lucille, are the white tanks 100% cotton? When you say stove top washing are you referring to a boil wash? If yes than I would use this method as a last resort....today's textiles are not like they were in the past....many won't hold up to water that hot.

Most of the tanks are 100% cotton, a few are 3% or 5% Lycra. No not a boil wash but a hot wash. I plan to hand wash the sweaty white tanks after wearing them instead of waiting a week. Likewise for other sweaty items and also hand wash some bras I am buying.

A few of the exercise capris I bought a couple years back have an exercise odor that just won't come out. I attribute this to the fact that they sat around in a laundry bin until wash day. I think that hand washing an item or two in warm or hot every day after wearing is not a big deal but may keep them usable longer.
