Is Expensive MF Cleaners Needed?

**JWilliams.RadiantDetail** · 12-31-2015, 01:33 PM

I think in the 5 gallon bucket 3D Kleen might be cheaper than the All Free & Clear I use. Hummm, I wonder how 3D Kleen works on regular non MF laundry?

I guess that's asking too much from a detergent? I dunno. But otherwise it cleans great.

Wash on hot water setting. Dry on low heat using as minimal time as possible.

Thanks man. Looks like my New Years product buying will now include the 3D Towel Clean. I'm building up an arsenal now.

Hd Towel Kleen rocks,and especially for the price!

My wife and I have a Kenmore Elite washer. We both hate it. I have tried to kill it for several months now,but it won't die. We have a bearing going out,but it keeps hanging on. It doesn't have a true agitator,and it doesn't clean worth a dang. Never has. The good thing is that the washer and dryer were a free housewarming gift.

We are going back to a machine with a true agitator. Our previous machine ROCKED,but the dryer we had was old and took forever to dry. We left them when we moved.

Anybody else have trouble with the agitator less stuff? Towel Kleen does a great job despite our crappy washer.

I have used micro restore and it's good but costly. I now used a hydrogen peroxide cleaner for most and a degreaser for nasty ones. No bleach and no fabric softener and I think your good.

I have replaced that bearing before, not a hard job in case you still want to keep it alive lol. Sounds like a jet right?

Yeah! It's LOUD. It sounds like it is going to take off/and or explode. If it did a better job I might keep it. It waited to go out after the service agreement ended too.

What is your cost per load using Tide Free & clear compared to the $18 a gallon 3D MF cleaner?

Do you all use only 2oz like when using a MF cleaner or use what the mfg considers a "loads" worth? Cause at my local prices TF&C would be about .10 per oz and Towel Kleen is about .14 per oz. Interested to hear some answers.

If it is only .06 more per load for me to use a product that is supposed to be better for the fibers you are cleaning it seems worth it to me still

All F&C is $9.95 for a 1.1L gallon and calls for 1.5oz for a normal load with 94 loads. It does a great job cleaning my towels. Free? no, but cheaper then all the other options.
