after looking at some of the other threads thought i would put my 2penuth in. Liquids do nothing for me where whites are concerned due to no bleach. I love Persil colour liquid on any colours except lights. And persil silk and wool on all jumpers and wool cycle items. Whites have to be white for me. I can take or leave tablets depending on the soil and i dont think ariel can beat a good 95.c wash with persil powder. Lights on 60.c. If they can take it. performance or non bio. I find washing t towels and dishcloths at tempsatures lower than 60 repulsive. My ex mother in law washed whites in her philco at 40 with fairy liquidtabs and her work shirts were mingin. The dishcloth was dark grey. She changed to ariel non bio and they got worse. Tablets i find dont wash like powder. They are just full of fillers. One of the reasons i hate ariel is that why would a company who always said ariel is the best make ace? Persil dont have sideline productions of stain removess etc so they have ultimate faith in their products. Perfect company ethos i think. I have been looking at ecover and filleti but i wont settle for anything less than perfect which persil offers. I always wash fabrics on appropriate wash actions but choose my own temp. Like synthetics at 60 for light t shirts white synthetics etc 40 cotton for jeans underwear socks col towels. 95 for pure whites that will take it. 40 synthetics for colour t shirts work trousers. And occasionally 40 wool for odd jumpers. Liquids take up to much shelf space and they may do well at first but use them for ages and whites suffer. And in the 10 years been doing my own washing i never ever used detergent additive with persil.

persil non bio does contain extra bleach to bio i agree it may whiten better but imo they work just as well. I stopped using pre wash when i gave up chefing as house hold whites dont really need it. I have a dishwasher so t towels hardly get used much anyway. I also agree about the dust etc in the fabrics but i feel i combat that with always using high rinse water level or extra rinses depending on the machine. To dilute it down. No way is ariel as good as persil and they do use blue as a illusion whereas persil i feel does the job right. Its funny you should say about whites looking blue. I gave an extra work jacket to a colleague once that i didnt need and she asked what powder i used as when she put it next to her white shirt she said it glowed with a blue tinge. I replied always persil at 95.c. This rocked the boat as she uses daz in her hoover 6 interactive. And her whites really did look dingy. But also i also use comfort conc usually easy iron which is dark blue. Best smell i think. as i like to double dose and you can fit more in the dispenser this way so maybe this also had something to do with the colour. But i know my whites are the best.
