✓REPLENISHES LANOLIN, PROTECTS PROTEIN FIBERS: Regular soaps and detergents strip the natural lanolin that keeps wool soft and resilient. Outback Gold puts it back, so protein fibers such as wool, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, angora, silk and sheepskin stay supple wash after wash. Since it is lab tested to be pH neutral, it never attacks the fiber the way alkaline detergents do. Contains natural lanolin, derived from sheep wool.
✓NO SLS, NO ENZYMES, NO BLEACH: Plant-derived cleansers lift soil with no sulfates, phosphates, bleach or formaldehyde releasing ingredients. Lanolin, aloe vera, castor oil and coconut oil condition and soften the fiber. Mild and low-sudsing by design for HE and standard machines. The cleaner works without excessive foam. Safe for all septic systems.
✓HOW MUCH TO USE? THE CAP IS THE MEASURE: HE machine 1 to 2 capfuls per load. Standard machine 4 capfuls. Hand wash 1/2 capful per gallon of water. Sheepskin rug 4 capfuls per skin, soak 15-30 minutes. Rinsing is optional (great for spot cleaning and blocking). One 16 oz bottle goes furthest by hand, about 96 washes, or 16 to 32 HE loads.
✓FRAGRANCE FREE: Made without tea tree oil or added fragrance. The base ingredients, including lanolin and plant oils, carry a faint, mild natural scent of their own, so even though this is fragrance free, it is not completely odorless. What you notice in the bottle fades as items dry.
✓MACHINE, HAND WASH, SOAK, SPOT CLEAN, BLOCK: Gentle cycle with no agitation in cool water, or hand wash and soak. Care for "dry clean only" sweaters, cashmere and silk at home. No rinse needed for spot cleaning or blocking a finished knit. Special formula, made in Idaho, USA. Desert Breeze Distributing is a woman-led, family-owned small business supplying wool, alpaca, and other natural fiber products and their care since 2013.
✓INGREDIENTS: Anionic and Nonionic Surfactants (plant-derived), Lanolin, Aloe Vera Gel, Castor Oil, Coconut Oil, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Hexylene Glycol.
