 Does Power Scour have germ killing substances?

We do not have any germicides, sanitizers, enzymes, phosphates or bleaching agents are in Power Scour. This was purposely done so as not to effect septic systems or require special permits and also not weaken the natural fiber- for example: enzymes attack protein, bleach can weaken the natural fibers and phosphates effect ground water.

Are your products 100% Organic?

No, but we try very hard to get the best ingredients that work and clean while minimizing environmental impact.

Are your products safe for watering plants with the brown water?

Yes!!! We are Biodegradable.

How do I get the yellow tips of the raw fleece clean?

Those protein tips are generally the combination of oil/wax on the fiber as well as dirt/clay or urine, coupled with sun or drying effects. The urine acts like a dye staining the tips. We suggest a hot water soak, followed by a hot water scouring followed by a second wash with half the dosage of Power Scour. The results depend on how much was there to begin with and the subsequent number of hot washes/soaks needed to address that. Just remember not to let the hot water soak temperature drop significantly.

How do I remove Lanolin from Raw Fleece?

We suggest using either Power Scour or Beyond Clean. For light lanolin, one washing with a full dose. For heavy Lanolin,wash with full dose, and a second washing is suggested. If dyeing, remove all lanolin to help with dye uptake.

Will my Sweaters fade or discolor in the sun?

Drying your sweaters in the sun is not recommended due to damage in the UV Rays. Use a mesh rack and lay flat to dry, indoors.

I cannot remove a stain. What should I do?

Use the Power Scour/Beyond Clean and apply a dab on the stain while gently working thru with your finger. Let sit for a few min. then wash as normal.

Should I soak in cool or hot water, with dirty raw fleece?

If you do a cool water soak, it will help remove dirt, but if you do a hot water soak, don’t let the water temp. drop too much, it will create a layer of lanolin that will be very hard, if not impossible to remove from the fibre.

Are the Unicorn products suitable for High Efficiency washers?
