Laundry Detergent: Liquid versus Powder
Laundry Detergent - Liquid or Powder - Which is Best for Your Family?
The correct answer depends on your family's specific everyday stains.
1 The Case for Liquid.
These are especially effective on food and greasy or oily soils. Because they are fluid, they also work as pretreaters for spots and stains.
Choose a liquid detergent if you do lots of spot-treating and have a family that specializes in food spills.
2 The Case for Powder.
Powder detergent is ideal for general wash-day loads, effectively lifting out clay and ground-in dirt.
If a majority of your family load involves stains of the outdoor variety, with not a lot of spot-treating required, choose a powder detergent.
