Don't wash your bonnet pads with Tide they will not come clean. washed some today in a heavy duty tripple front loader and did not come clean...actually I washed them twice. all joking aside, the Tide didnt do it for me. |

Thats all I use is Tide with alternative bleach powder. Two big scoops 4 bonnet pads hot water comes out brand new. I use use bleach ran out still came out looking damn good. Might want to try after water fills up to let it sit and soak for 15 minutes and carry on. No problems On the other hand another worker of mines washer doesn't clean as well |

Dennis You may want to try the DFC heavy Duty. When you use traditional products (like Tide or anything else) THEY ALL CONTAIN DTERGENTS OF SOME KIND. Becasue DFC HD contains 0 dtergents we are no longer trying to clean soap with soap. We have had excellent results in cleaning mop heads, microfiber cloths etc. i think you will have excellent results. Hope this helps ------------- Jim Darling |

Soaking your bonnets and pads in a detergent overnight before cleaning helps a lot |

Front loaders don't do pads as well as an agitator washer.. Yes, put bleach in with your pads.. ------------- Converting HWE customer to VLM customers for 30 Years! |
