Sparkie...I was told that the Power disolver was going to stop being made..I grabbed a few bottles at Brooks Drug store try there for some....I also grabbed a bottle of the new stuff called Dawn Direct foam and they both work the same..the Direct foam comes out like a foam....spread it on the pads..let it sit a few and then wash...works as good as the power disolver..pads come out spotless....really cuts the residue on the pads...also good for a pre wash on MF towels the get grunge stains out...

yup thats the stuff...the power dissolver is getting harder to find....usually just walmart type stores carry it...the direct foam stuff is good as well...both products are super concentrated and rinse fairly clean...the power dissolver get the edge as it is stronger of the two
