Ecover soak?

Can someone either tell me or point me to links for softening cd's by soaking in Ecover? Thanks so much mamas! 

Re: Ecover soak?

  • I've just used it in the last rinse, not as a soak, and it's softened my CDs up just fine.  I imagine that if you want to use it as a soak, you should do it prior to the last rinse in your wash cycle.  Either way, make sure to remove PUL items before adding the Ecover.

  • I did a soak with 2 fitteds in my sink filled about half way with water and a capful of ecover.  They were pretty rough so I let them soak over night.  You can add it to the rinse cycle also just make sure you remove the PUL and microfiber.

    Why are you not suppose to use it on microfber?

    This - I've used it on my microfiber.  Am I not supposed to? Tongue Tied

    Yea, I figured out quickly that I shouldn't have used it on my PUL the first time I used it and promptly did a few rinses and all was well again, but I haven't had any issues on my microfiber...yet. ;-P
