RLR Natural Laundry Detergent Powder – Whitens, Brightens, Refreshes Baby Cloth Diaper Detergent, Musty Towels, Workout Clothes - Non-toxic, Fragrance-Free For Sensitive Skin (Pack of 5)

When athletic clothing and towels get a little funky, RLR to the rescue. I add packet of RLR, warm water, and the musty items in the laundry tub to soak for several hours. The water is usually pretty nasty after a good soak. (Gross, but satisfying.) I rinse thoroughly, toss in the machine for a cycle, and everything comes out fresh and revived. This laundry booster is saving my laundry routine. Photo included is the water with two musty towels after soaking for six hours. -Sincerely, a mom of eight who has done a few loads of laundry in her lifetime

Works great for cloth diapers. No scent, kinda pricy for what it is though.

I had been having trouble with my clothing getting/smelling clean for awhile now and came across this product by accident. I only do small loads and can check in on the items throughout the process. This treatment absolutely works, but please don't use the whole packet at a time. The suds it creates when you're only using 1 teaspoon with soap is utterly amazing and you are just defeating the purpose and throwing away money on an already pricey product. Also, let your items soak in the warmest water they can stand for at least 2-3 hours. I have lost some color on some very old shirts, I'll admit, but the dirt that comes out of the load is always a surprise. Run extra rinses on your loads as well before putting them into the dryer. Check in on a load if you can and see where you stand on soap and treatment measurements. If you see an inch of thick, white foam that doesn't dissolve quickly; you've used too much of something. Never use more than 2 tablespoons of detergent, even on the largest, dirtiest of loads. It will only gunk up and eventually ruin your machine. I have a small mason jar that I opened the packets and dumped the contents into and measure out what I need when I'm doing a load. I only use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon now and you can see the water get clearer in a matter of a few minutes. Worth buying. Worth playing around with. Use less in your loads and save yourself some money. Good luck.

I use this to strip diapers after they have been in storage for awhile. Add one pack to a bath tub with diapers and let them soak overnight. In the morning the water looks and smells like urine. Drain, rinse and wash as usual in the washer. This will not totally remove all stains, but it works great for smells and build up.

RLR works so well to brighten and whiten my wash. Will buy again.

This is an interesting item. I didn't order it to clean baby diapers or anything like that, though I'm sure it would do a fine job. My husband ordered this for me because I recently bought several pairs of black pants from several different retailers, and after one washing of each pair, seemed to release a monster that is the undying odor of sulfur dyes used to keep the fabric black. I tell you, I cannot wear a single pair of my four brand new pairs of black pants because the odor is sickening to me. It smells like overpowering chemicals and sulfur. I've tried several methods of removing the odor, like soaking in vinegar, Yaddi Yaddi Yadda, and NOTHING has helped. The smell is unwavering. Each pair of pants has been washed on the harshest settings at least 5 times now, and the smell has either remained the same or seems MORE powerful, somehow. It's definitely a huge waste of my hard earned money if I can't get these pants wearable. Then again - If I succeed in getting the horrific smells out, do I WANT to wear these pants? Imagine what chemicals would be leaching through my skin if I did?? Ugh. So, I've tried this stuff twice now on all of the pants, and while I thought it may have been helping after the first wash, now, after another smell test, I am not so sure. I think I'll wash the pants again, probably about 10 more times, and see what the status is at that point. I don't want to ding this product because it hasn't worked on my particular problem since it was labeled for stinky black pants dye. I am simply experimenting with whatever I can find. So, if it's baby diapers or other smells you need to remove from clothing, this is easy to use and probably effective. For my black pants... I may be donating them or simply tossing them.

Super helpful when dealing with detergent build up in cloth diapers! I dump a couple packets in the tub with hot water and the diapers and it removes all the build up. These were so life saver!

If you don’t want a magical powder for your smelly laundry that takes nearly zero effort then I cannot help you. When I used RLR the first time I honestly thought I was being scammed. It is powder in a packet that you toss in the washing machine with normal detergent and run through a regular cycle. No soaking, no extra steps, no pre-treating and no time consuming complex directions. Open the packet, dump the contents on laundry and proceed as normal. My husband produces some of the smelliest gym clothes and the free and clear detergent we are forced to use due to my eczema just is not cutting it. I’ve tried vinegar, extra rinse cycles and even enzymatic cleaners. The smell still lingers. It’s awful. RLR was my final hope. I now use it on my husband’s towels, pillow cases and our dogs’ bedding. It does not leave any scent behind but the laundry comes out of the machine clean and unfunky. It’s amazing. These packets are a little pricey but the alternative is stinky clothes that are not wearable. I don’t use RLR in every load and I have used half a packet in a small load with some success.

Used this to strip my cloth diaper lot worked well material is now more absorbent

I use this occasionally for reviving cloth diapers, and also with my husband's mechanic/garage type laundry to help get smells out. Awesome product!

This stuff is the best. I used to cloth diaper and used RLR all the time to clean them. Figured I'd do my towels. This is 7 large towels, two hours. They were in my closet "clean." I've found it best to use warm/hot water, a tablespoon of powered tide, and a whole package in the tub.
