Simple recipes that use Pure Soap Flakes:
SCOURING CLEANSER
- 10 ml (2 teaspoons) borax
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) soap flakes
- 625 ml (2 1/2 cups) hot water
- 5-25 ml (2-5 teaspoons) of whiting

- 2.) Add 2-5 teaspoons of whiting, until desired abrasiveness and consistency is reached.
- 3.) Use to scour sinks, baths etc.
- Editor’s Note: The whiting makes this formula scratch. For a non-scratch formula, substitute the whiting with baking soda.
LAUNDRY SOAP

- Even with the extra cost of incorporating all of the above ingredients, doing your laundry this way is still more economical than conventional methods! Also, never forget to dry your clothes in the sun whenever possible. Sunshine is the oldest and best natural bleach and disinfectant available.
