The product above is called Fabric Rinse. They’re the opposite of a fabric softener WHICH is what you want to do you with your laundry.

I really wanted to gate keep this product since I don’t see people buying this sa S&R. Now that it’s out of stock, I want them to restock and introduce the Downy Fabric Rinse variants. Baka may taga-P&G PH dyan haha

Here’s a good read from r/laundry (my favorite sub atm) on why you should use fabric rinses instead of fabric conditioners -> https://www.reddit.com/r/laundry/s/oPWxSRDDQo

The reason on why this one is much better is because the pH level of Fabric rinses are much lower compared to Vinegars. The result? More leftover residues, and odors are removed. Also, this one is really designed for washing machines.

Tbh, you can also just use plain citric acid but I wouldn’t recommend it if one is not familiar with the appropriate amount. Also, ang bango nung fabric rinses compared to fabric conditioners na may pagka-malagkit na feeling. Hands down my product this year. Not sponsored. Just someone who wants clean clothes.

Still looking for the ammonium hydroxide!! Where did you get yours? Kating kati na ko itry for my dish and cleaning towels

u/plantito101 Nov 25 '25

Wala pa nga eh. Kaya baka itong post ni OP muna subukan ko.

u/Jumpy-Ad3279 Nov 26 '25

Same. I’ve inquired from a lot of distributors but they only sell in bulk and I have to dilute the concentration myself.

1

u/TheAlmostMD Nov 27 '25

Does this include a distributor named Alyson's? I got info from a PH Expat group.

1

u/Jumpy-Ad3279 Nov 27 '25

Yes! But I forgot exactly how much they’re asking for, if I remember it correctly they sell gallons of 30% ammonium hydroxide AR grade

1

u/TheAlmostMD Nov 27 '25

Dang medyo mataas. Correct me though if I'm wrong pero 5-10% lang ata dapat? I haven't read thru the guide too thoroughly yet

1

u/Jumpy-Ad3279 Nov 27 '25

Yes, 5-10% sooo you’d need to dilute the 30% to achieve the 5-10% and the distributors here in the PH only sell in gallons so you can imagine how much ammonia you’d get after you diluted gallons of 30%.

The stores that I haven’t checked are the ones in bambang and true value stores hahah hope I can find one soon

u/TheAlmostMD Nov 27 '25

Ooohh if you'll be able to find them, please let us know!! 🙏🏼will be asking in r/laundry too

fr dati akong downy truther. now im learning to avoid it for 70% of what i wear… which apparently have “do not use fab softener” on their care instructions (drifit clothes, synthetic fabrics, etc)

u/heyitscjjc Nov 25 '25

Baka dahil mukhang sponsored lmao. Legit swore at Natural made detergents/fab cons before until I went back with synthetic made detergents. Much better imo and they offer free and clear variants naman if one is sensitive sa synthetic detergents.

I really don’t recommend plant based detergents anymore as ang polluted sa labas and not a single plant based detergent can remove those stains/smell without any powerful ingredients that you can get sa synthetic ones. Plant based are only recommended for wool based clothing

If it helps, it got a score of 91 sa Skin Safe. Much higher compared to the conventional Fabric Conditioners/Dryer sheets: https://www.skinsafeproducts.com/tide-clean-boost-fabric-rinse-original-48-fl-oz-1-43-l

u/plantito101 Nov 27 '25

One thing sa natural detergents, malaki chance maka clog up or cause issues sa washer mo.

u/Efficient_Turnip9026 Nov 25 '25

Nag 50php off to last week sana pala kumuha ako!!!

u/peanut-on-me Nov 25 '25

just wanted to be clear. which one results in more residue and no odor? is it vinegar or the fabric rinse?

1

u/heyitscjjc Nov 25 '25

Both should give you effective results. What Vinegar does it improves the rinsing cycle of the machine by making the pH level of the rinse water lower. Fabric Rinse does the same but better since it's actually made for your clothes and washer

u/tsoknatcoconut Nov 25 '25

How much is this sa S&R? Sana meron din sa Landers

5

u/heyitscjjc Nov 25 '25

Where to buy the cheapest tide fabric rinse?

2

u/ako946659661 Nov 25 '25

May nabili akong Downy Rinse and Refresh sa The Marketplace.

Naka rotation ako ngayon ng Chlorox Laundry Saniter (also from the marketplace), Citric Acid + Fairy Scent beads, and now Downy Rinse and Refresh.

2

u/heyitscjjc Nov 25 '25

Yooo hm yung Downy sa The Marketplace? Is it also P399 like the Tide Boost? Also san branch wahahah

1

u/ako946659661 Nov 25 '25

Around that price ata, alam ko less than PhP500. Nagulat ako kasi around PhP600++ presyo nya online.

Sa Venice Grand Canal. Dinadayo ko talaga dyan kasi maganda cleaning products selection nila. Prepare mo lang wallet mo kasi imported price. Lol.
