Laboncler's Active Gel is a premium liquid detergent designed for both white and colored clothes. Its formula stands out for its high concentration of active ingredients (30%), which allows it to remove tough stains from the root and protect fibers from the first wash.
Product information
- Composition: Contains between 15% and 30% anionic and non-ionic surfactants, optical brightening agents, soap, and preservatives.
- Properties: It is biodegradable, prevents limescale buildup in the machine, leaves no residue, and has a fresh, marine-style scent.
- Versatility: It can be used alone or in combination with other brand products like Eco-Jin to enhance its effectiveness on extreme stains.
How to use in the washing machine
For professional results and to care for your washing machine, follow these dosing guidelines:
- Standard dose: Apply between 20 and 30 ml of gel to the detergent dispenser (marked with the symbol «II»).
- Adjust according to load: You can adjust the amount depending on the dirtiness of the laundry and the hardness of the water in your area.
- No residue: As it is a gel format, it dissolves perfectly even in short washes or at low temperatures, preventing soap buildup in the drum.
How to use it for whitening clothes
This detergent is especially effective at keeping whites bright thanks to its optical brighteners. To maximize this effect:
- Pre-treat stains: On yellowish areas or stubborn stains (like collars and cuffs), apply a small amount of gel directly to the fabric before putting it in the washing machine.
- Preventive washing: Its brightening agents create a barrier that helps prevent white clothes from becoming grayish or yellowish over time.
- No bleach: Containing integrated optical brighteners, it provides brightness without the need for additional harsh bleaches in most cases.
Combining Laboncler's Active Gel with Eco-Jin creates an extremely powerful cleaning system to treat grease and ink stains that resist normal washing.
Step 1: Pre-treatment with Eco-Jin
Before putting the garment in the washing machine, act directly on the stain:
- For grease and ink: Use Eco-Jin in its strong mixture or even pure if the stain is very stubborn.
- Application: Spray the mixture directly onto the affected area. For textiles, it is recommended to use the Eco-Jin Neutral version, as it contains no colorants.
- Action: Let it act for a few minutes. For deeply ingrained ink or grease stains, you can gently rub with a soft-bristled brush to help the product penetrate the fibers.
Step 2: Boosting in the Washing Machine
Once the garment has been pre-treated, prepare it for the main wash:
- Detergent: Add the usual 20-30 ml of Laboncler Active Gel to the detergent compartment.
- Eco-Jin Enhancer: For a deep clean of the entire load, add 1 or 2 caps of concentrated Eco-Jin directly to the dispenser drawer next to the detergent.
- Wash: Select the usual program. For grease stains, using warm or hot water usually improves the effectiveness of the degreaser.
Key recommendations
- Delicate fabrics: Always perform a small test in an inconspicuous area if it's the first time you're applying pure Eco-Jin to that garment.
- Results on whites: This combination not only removes dirt but also boosts the optical brighteners in the gel, achieving brighter whites and eliminating grayish tones.
