Review of Surf Washing Powder

...ditto The boffins at Surf recommend that you use no more than 400ml of powder per wash (for cases of really heavy soiling) and for larger 6/7kg capacity machines you should add a minimum of 30ml extra powder to each of the afor mentioned amounts. For pre-washing they advice you use 100ml of powder, and 110ml for hand washing purposes. By the way, these measurements relate to the ‘Surf Measuring Cup’, which I hasten to add DOES NOT come with this ...
...any washing detergent, but as Surf (Lemon Fresh) is my current choice of cleaner I knew this was going to be a test-and-a-half for it! Into the washer went the clothes, on of them pre-soaked, in went the powder and on the machine went at 40 degrees C. An hour later I ventured back into the kitchen and opened the machine’s door with some scepticism and I have to say a great deal of trepidation. Had Surf, with all it’s current stain-removing claims ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

I usually buy Surf Washing Powder for my laundry in the new Sunshine Fragrance which I find leaves the laundry smelling fresh and clean. Great when it is on the beds as well - you can smell the freshness as you lay there. As many of you know I have started doing the laundry for our hotel rather than sending it out - (Pete's brilliant idea to save money ! ) For this weeks laundry I needed some more washing powder so off I went to the Local Market ...
...them. I looked for the Surf Sunshine and there it was stood at the end of the row. But next to it was another box - still Surf but a new fragrance - Tropical. Hmm I had a quick sniff at the box and was amazed by the strength of the fragrance inside. Flowery yet a hint of something else that I can't quite put my finger on. Price marked at £1.39 for 1.10kg seemed great value as this size box is usually £1.99. Straight in the basket it went. The Package ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

...or just what's cheapest. Surf tropical washing powder, 1.10kg, was on offer in my local Somerfield, for £1.99, recently so I stocked up and brought 3 boxes. It states it removes the top 99 stains (I'm sure that the full list of stains would be interesting!) or your money back! The top 10 removed stains are: Beetroot Tomato Juice Egg yolk Felt tip pens Baked bean Fresh deodorant Syrup Strawberry ice cream Soy sauce Blackcurrant jam Now ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

...box of automatic 'Sun Fresh' Surf for £1.69. It makes sure your whites come up really white, and you won't need to wash your laundry twice. It leaves your clothes smelling fresh, and gives you the outdoor freshness you want in clothes. You can also handwash with this powder. Do do so, use 120ml of powder per 10 litres of water. Dissolve it completely, and rinse your clothes out thoroughly. People with sensitive or damaged skin should avoid prolonged ...
...15% - 30% Phosphate. Surf also contains enzymes and a brightening agent. An enzyme is a stain removal ingredient which works at low temperatues. The enzyme only works on biological products, not non-biological ones. (The Surf I bought is biological!). On the side of the box, it tells you how much to use in your machine for light/normal soiling, and heavy soiling. It also states how to use it. The pack contains 15 washes based on a light/normal soiling ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

...is this product well simply Surf Washing tablets. Now washing up powder is all well and good but I don't know about you but my washing machine is clogged up in those little trays with old washing powder that has not been taken into the wash and although I was cleaning it out regular it still kept happening so my mum said to try using Surf tablets so in I went to tesco's on my next shopping trip and they had them at £3.79 for 16 tablets yes a bit ...
...them a go. My next choice was do I buy Citrus orange or Lemon so as they had a buy one get one free I got one of each. Inside the box was a little drawstring bag and two tablets in each little clear bag. I took two tablets as instructed on the box and chewed them for ages only joking then stuck them in the little bag and bunged them in with the wash and no need to add conditioner as the yellow for lemon or orange for citrus layers are the conditioner ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

...I have been using SURF POWDER for quite a while now and I am very impressed with the results it gives. Also its great for my family as none of us have had any reactions to the powder, (me and my daughter have sensitive skin) The one I buy is COTTON FRESH SURF, this comes in a blue box and is priced at £2.19 for a 1.10kg box. It states that this will give up to 15 washes, but personally it gives me more than that as I feel I do not need to use as ...
...The first time I used Surf I was very impressed, the powder dissolved well. With some powders I have found that after the wash it hasn't all dissolved and has left residue on the clothes, thus they need washing again. The smell (a very light fragrance) is very pleasant and I find it keeps it long after the clothes have dried. It actually removed all stains, and when you have children, you know what I mean, anything from juice to grass stains. I ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

... This is Surf washing powder. It comes in a variety of coloured boxes, this is the orange one - and very pretty it is too, with a nice swirly wave on the front, just to remind you of seaside freshness - or polluted beaches, but that's just my little joke! This is Surf with Sun Fresh. Smell that Summer fragrance. Just delish. Surf also comes in other fragrances, non-biological, biological, ...

Every Sunday morning, we go to her matches and these socks start off as bright white, and I need to get them back to white by her next match. FRED : Have you tried other washing powders before? MRS.

Review of Surf Washing Powder

New Surf with Essential oils is the Surf brands latest innovation in washing technology. You may have seen the new television adverts featuring the Lavender fragrance, I have never been a fan of Lavender so this review is about the Sunshine fragrance. Having always been a regular user of Surf washing powder, I would have continued to use this brand with the new essential oils formula or not. I had recently switched to using Surf Small & Mighty Sunshine ...
...yellow colour featuring the recognisable Surf logo and some flowers on the front with the 99 stains guarantee on the back. It wasnt until I got home and did some washing that I realised the formula had changed. I did a wash and hung the clothes to dry as usual. There was a really fresh, zingy smell which was very pleasant, a lemon tone strong enough to notice but subtle enough not to be overpowering. Then, I noticed the advert for the new Lavender ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

The main reason I use Surf washing powder is my daughter, she has very sensitive skin. I have tried all of the well-known brands, some of the supermarket own brands and even tried the washing powders specially made for sensitive skin but they all bring her out in a rash. The only powder that doesn't affect her is Surf, it is a very good powder, it gets clothes clean even removing mud and grass stains. Surf smells very nice and comes in three different ...

...of the box it says surf tropical.It also says at the top of the box "99 top stains removed or your money back". **The Price and were to get it from** I think it were round about £1.89 for the normal sixe box. Not sure if thats cheap or not as i normally buy Bold 2 in1 in the tablets (but tht's a different review). I got my box from Tesco so i should imagin that you can get it from anywere. ** The Stains it says it removes** ~ Beetroot~ ~Tomato ...
...and lots more, they claim that wash powder can remove 99 top stains. **A few little bits** Its says on the box that you should measure the wash powder in a measuring cup, theres a free phone number were you can ring for 1, the number is 0800 2543131. I think to the average sixe box (like the one i got) your suppose to get roughly 10 washes out of it. You can also log onto there website which is www.surf.co.uk, on that site you can find loads ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

Surf Tropical isn't just a washing powder, it's like a perfume for your clothes! Sure it washes them, your whites will really stay white and your colours will stay coloured but for me, it is about the way they feel and smell after the wash! The experience is not in putting the powder in the machine, but taking the clothes out again afterwards! Only a small amount is needed for a large wash so a small box will last you for ages! When I hang my washing ...

Review of Surf Washing Powder

This is the powder I always use and with a family of four I find it economic and excellent on tough stains. My husband has sensitive skin and this is one of the few powders that don't irritate his skin. My son is a avid football player as well as being the usual dirty 13 year old boy. My daughter tends to get makeup all over her clothes and I find the power gets all stains clean out. When I had my horse i even used this powder to wash rugs and ...
...too. I still use it for washing the pets beds and the fresh smell lasts quite well. This power can be use on all fabric types and wash temps and I find that using slightly less than the recommened dose still gets clothes really clean and smelling lovely and fresh. The only downside is it can be a bit pricy but I always look for the offers so don't worry about that side of it. ...

...bought a box of New Surf Tropical it was on special offer for 99p (usually £1.90), It has an eyecatching pink box with flowers on it. This powder smells very nice, like a fresh bouquet of flowers hmmmm!!!! and it is good value for money too. Now the cleaning bit, this powder works well at 40'c and can shift the most stubborn stains at this temperature by using the recommended dosage (155ml), it also states on the box that it will remove 99 top stains ...
