Know before you buy
Yes, Sal Suds is pH-neutral and safe for sealed stone countertops, tile, and stainless steel when properly diluted.
Because it is highly concentrated, you only need a small amount. For a general-purpose spray, mix about half a tablespoon of Sal Suds into a quart of water.
Yes, it works well as a laundry detergent. Use about one to two tablespoons for a standard load, though you may want to use less if you have a high-efficiency (HE) machine.
The cleaner features a natural pine scent derived from pure essential oils. It provides a fresh, clean aroma while you work, but it dissipates quickly and does not leave a heavy or synthetic fragrance behind.
Yes, the formula is biodegradable and free of synthetic dyes, fragrances, and preservatives, making it a safe choice for homes with septic systems.
Since the formula is highly concentrated, a single 32-ounce bottle lasts significantly longer than standard pre-diluted cleaners. With a 24-month shelf life once opened, it is a practical choice for those who prefer to buy in bulk.
