White Socks Recipe

What was I thinking, sending ten pairs of new white socks with my daughter to camp? You can imagine what happened. The bottoms of her socks were embedded with grime and dirt. Sort of like the floor in the cabin.

Well, no worries. Although my daughter wanted to throw the socks out, I told her we would use the White Socks Recipe.

For those of you who have never heard of it, the White Socks Recipe has been part of the SA8 laundry culture for years. I searched the website for this old gem, and found it under Use Instructions on the White Socks and More product page.  It looks like this particular bundle is going to be discontinued soon, but the individual products, SA8 Bioquest Laundry Detergent, SA8 Solutions Tri-zyme Stain Presoak, and SA8 Solutions All Fabric Bleach all are available.   

First I presoaked the socks using the SA8 products, then I ran them through a long wash cycle to shake out the dirt. The result? Clean socks.

Now if only there was a Teen Daughter Washes Clothes Recipe. The one I've been using has not yet been perfected.

Do you have any laundry stain stories to share?

Thanks for the story Norma. Prewash is a wonder. I've also had luck using LOC full strength on paint stains if I catch them early. Do you ever use the Stain Professor interactive stain chart on the website?

Can you post the "recipe"?  It's NLA on Quixtar.com.

Editor's Note: I will track it down and post it, Dan!

About Lynn Wendyger

Moms blogging on this site are all ladies working for Amway Global. As a baby boomer mom of two millennial children, I live in a world where my children know more about technology than I do. I enjoy a love-hate relationship with technology ... although I strive to be on top of the latest trends, my favorite activities remain curling up with a good book or taking a long walk. But I am insatiably curious about the role that technology plays in work, home and education. As a masters level Clinical Psychologist in a past life, I’m interested in how technology enhances life ... and how it can also make it more complex. As a Performance Consultant in Training & Education, I am excited about contributing to the development of learning programs that will help Independent Business Owners make money selling products and build successful businesses. I’ve also spent many years in both Brand Management and Web Marketing, where I was part of several website launch teams. In my very first job at Amway way back in 1985, I traveled the country as a Health Trainer, leading workshops with Independent Business Owners on how to sell Nutrilite health products. Wow! Who knew I’d come full circle? -More
