Has anyone used this to clean anything else other than a car, and if so, what kind of detergent did you use?

Works on just about everything under the sun, porcelain, shower tile (soap scum and scum), toilet bowls, plastic, paint (walls get really clean with this, and no evidence the paint is stripped), metal, glass, linoleum (dogs & cats in this household), etc... I have even used it for carpet to spot clean, actually does a fairly good job on some carpet boo boos. However, for lime & hard water stains this is not the answer. I do not have that problem here, but in another location I did. For that I have to use, ugh, chemicals, Lime Away. I buy this stuff by the case, best value out there for the most broad spectrum all purpose cleaner that I have found to date. No smears with a couple of swipes, no residual that feels greasy, smells rather pleasant but not lingering or overpowering. As far as their dish washer soap, not so good. Their laundry soap is not bad, whites not as bright as say Tide or Gain, every other load or so I use an all purpose color safe generic Clorox add in to the load. Their Dryer sheets are excellent, Glass Cleaner is excellent. I have not tried their floor cleaners, use a steamer so not needed. Hope this helps.

I use this product alone because I am allergic to other detergents. It does not make much suds but cleans well.

I have heard there is a recipe for laundry detergent you can make with Dr. Bronners and washing soda and a few other things - I do not have the recipe - could you Google it? I know it makes a ton and is very cheap - a friend gave me a jug - it worked great.

The only thing that comes to mind for me is using an upholstery cleaning attachment on a shampooing carpet cleaner to give it a wash. I use Bissel's Spotclean portable carpet cleaner to clean my upholstery but a full sized carpet cleaner would work too if it has a handheld tool attachment.

The only times I've used it for laundry I have used it as an additive and have been very happy with the results. It is a powder and I don't like using powder detergent for laundry. I mostly use this product for its excellent cleaning capabilities.

I think that there are better options for what you are looking. This is ideal for cleaning the car (as a sponge) but i don't think it would be useful for your task.

I'm not sure there is a recommended detergent; however, I use Charlie's Soap.

I would not use another cleaner. I do not know what it would do but I would hate to mess my cleaner up. The floor scrubber is the best thing since cleaners were made and I have just about used them all.

Hi John! I use the soap as a part of my homemade detergent and I also have an HE washer. It works just fine for me!

I only wash my car with water. I have not tried with soap or washing fluid.

I haven't found a good detergent that doesnt leave the pans spotted. Let me know if you find one.

I haven't found this detergent to be effective on anything when used alone.

Just a regular vaccum cleaner. I used this for spits from my pets also heavy traffic areas. It works great!. I also used the 3X Resolve cleaner. Don't no if that mattered. But it took out spots,I couldn't get out with my Bissell rug cleaner. I went with all wood floors now and only area rugs but i still use it on spots with the area rugs. It's wonderful. Not a wasted dollar for me I'd but again if I needed too. Love it!!

If the washer is out of warranty or you don't care if the washer company might make a big deal of using a non-HE detergent, just keep using it. Don't use more than you need or you'll get sudsing that'll reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning. I've been using this in my last two front loaders that recommend HE detergents with no problems. I never use more than the first line on the cup for even large loads. If you get excess suds, use less next time.

I have been using it as an additive to our normal detergent use. It also worked great to clean or tile and grout!

I used a regular household cleaner that I had. Formula 409 or something like that. Definitely something that will remove residual grease or residue.
