Shredsope Fine Linen Wash

Watkins fine linen wash is fantastic for fine lingerie that is too fragile for the washing machine. One gentle wash will get your "unmentionables" impeccably clean while treating them and yourself to a soft touch and beautiful scent.

In 1927, Watkins introduced a new cleaning product made from soap which was finely shredded into quick-dissolving flakes for dishes and laundry alike. It was an all-purpose cleaning product which was tough on dirt, yet kind to fabrics and hands. That simple product from a gentler era is the inspiration behind “Shredsope” home care products from Watkins. The old soap flakes have been replaced by modern, environmentally friendly, high-performance surfactants, but their nostalgic labels and uniquely fresh vanilla/citrus
scent add a sense of style and indulgence to everyday tasks.

Fine Linen Wash
Fine lingerie can make you feel truly special. Those items worn closest to the skin need a little
extra TLC, and satin, silk and lace are too fragile for the washing machine. Our gentle wash will
get your lingerie impeccably clean while treating them and yourself to a soft touch and beautiful
scent.
• Safe for fine fabrics: The old Watkins Shredsope product claimed to be “Best for silk stockings”
and other delicate goods; this modern product uses a particularly mild surfactant blend which
is safe and gentle enough for shampoos and hand soaps.
• Biodegradable: Safe for the environment.
• Nostalgic 1920s label art: Looks great on your shelf; adds fun and flair to household chores.
• Vanilla/citrus scent: Adds a touch of indulgence; invigorating citrus is softened by the touch of
calming vanilla for which Watkins is famous.
