WIN is nothing but regular detergent with oxyclean added. It's a ripoff ismho...
From the website, "The super oxygenated formula in Win Detergent...". Super oxygenated means oxygen booster which is the same thing as oxyclean.
try the Stinky Bike Gear recipe
Soak in "Biz" overnight, at least 12 hours. this is an enzyme
based presoak that goes after organic matter, not your regular presoak.
Then, rinse that out and then run through the wash with a laundry product
called Oxyclean, which is not an detergent it's an additive. You should be
able to get that at any supermarket
Other laundry notes:
pack, armor, gloves can be washed in the washer. Put in a laundry bag or a pillow case to keep straps from getting tangled.
No Dryer.
Do not use fabric softener on wicking fabrics. It coats the fibers so they don't work properly.
Helmets, hose off and air dry.
Hand washing, use baby shampoo not Woolite. Woolite is a detergent with conditioners added to make things feel soft. Baby shampoo is a mild as it gets plus it's lot cheaper.
