Maid Simple Laundry Soap is great for shifting stains from fabric. It can be used as a pre-treatment before a machine wash or just add to water for washing by hand. We have been amazed by the variety of stains this little ‘power’ bar can shift! Whilst it will work on stubborn stains on fabric it is still gentle enough to be used to hand wash laundry. It is great for traveling. More economical than liquids – more compact than powders it can be taken in hand luggage on aircraft.
