Nothing Like Clean Clothes

Rating:*****
Use this clothing detergent every time I wash my "high tech" hiking clothing, etc. Had an opportunity to use it washing my REI Elements rain jacket and pants. It removes all odors, and my clothes are nice and clean. Wore my REI Elements rain jacket and pants on a day when it was too warm to wear them, and I was thankful this sport wash worked as advertised - all odors gone. It does help retain / restore water repellancy, as the REI Elements jacket and rain pants still shed rain and snow like new. Uncertain about collar and sleeve end built-in grime. Guess if that might be a problem, perhaps first using a special "pre-wash stubborn-stain scrub" cleaner and then thoroughly rinsing those areas out before throwing the item in with the rest of the clothing would help. Then the pre-wash would not interfere with the chemical balance in the sport wash. So far this product has worked just fine and I am happy with it.
