Shaklee Dish Washer Automatic Powder Concentrate: what it does, how to use it, and what it costs

With Dish Washer Automatic Powder Concentrate, you’ll never have to wash a dish before you put it in the dishwasher or use Earth-adverse chemicals to get your dishes clean. This patented, super-concentrated formula lets you use just a little for a whole load of sparkling dishes.

PTPA provides an objective means to discover, appraise, and promote new products designed to enrich family living. Awards are presented to companies whose products are deemed exceptional by a knowledgeable and unbiased panel of experts.

Directions for best results:

Save water and energy and use the dishwasher only when it’s full. Use hot water (at least 140°  F) to get things sparkling. Dirty surfaces should face spray jets. Don’t block spray to top and back.

In normal water conditions: 1 scoop (2 tsp.) to each dispenser cup.

Note: In hard water, add 2 scoops (4 tsp.) per dispenser cup. For really hard water, go ahead and fill them up.

NO MORE PRE-RINSING Get Clean Dish Wash dissolves really fast and releases active cleaning agents early in the wash cycle. You might need to soak baked-on food.

CONCENTRATED Use just 1 scoop (2 tsp.) in each dispenser cup, unless dishes are super-dirty. Other brands need 16 tsp. (2 full dispenser cups) for the same clean. Safe for use in septic systems.

Close securely after use. Store in cool, dry place.
