Stripping with Rlr?

  Sounds pretty similar to what I'd do if I had a TL.  I have a FL so I do a lot of my RLR strips by boiling in a pot on the stove or soaking in my laundry sink.

  I've only done an RLR strip once, but I did pretty much the same thing that you described. I think maybe I let the drum of the washer fill and start agitating before I added the diapers, and I let them soak over night. (I was having trouble with my Fuzzibunz at the time, and their customer service advised me to let them soak at least 3 hours or overnight if possible)

  I strip with bleach. Works great! I have an he fl and use the bleach dispenser. 1/4 cup. Run on heavy duty cycle on hot, and about 2-3 rinses afterwards. Then regular wash with Tide.

  Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but while bleach is great to sanitize I'm pretty sure it won't strip buildup caused by too much detergent, rash creams, etc.

  I think that's correct.  When you're stripping, you want to get things out of the diapers, not add more.  :-/
