Laundry detergent spill

[Mikey P]

Half gallon oozed out on poly cpt

A bit of pink discoloration in the middle of a big ol' dark blotch

never cleaned...


No foam build up what so ever.

Yes
New washers don’t like a bunch of suds

The pink is the only dye that hasn't been removed from what I can tell.

@Mikey P Was it laundry detergent or fabric softener? Fabric softener doesn't foam and would have the pink hue you are talking about.

What causes the pink hue? I see that a lot and thought it was color loss.

Detergent, Gain I believe..

You will never get it all out but the water claw is the way to go.
Finish with an encapsulating rinse agent.

No Gain, no pain

What causes the pink hue?

just the coloring of some of the products, whether it is added or part of the chemicals I don't know.
