Warnings & Directions

Directions for Use:

For Best Results in Everyday Use: Add 2/3 tablespoon (1 tbsp for a large or heavy soil load) directly into washer, not the dispenser. Wash according to care instructions. Cool water is fine. To Deep Clean right now, here's what you do.. 1) Deep clean your washer by washing a load of rags with one tablespoon of laundry powder. 2) Deep clean your laundry by washing the same load a few times in a row, each time with another tablespoon. 3) Use only Charlie's Soap products, and both your laundry AND your machine will stay deeply cleaned and odor free!

Caution:

CAUTION: EYE IRRITANT. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
