Usage
Can I use the Laundry Detergent in my washer if it says NOT to use a HE or gel detergent?
We have spoken with reps at companies who make these machines and the reason they advise that is because it might cause the washer to over-sud or cause a residue, because people tend to over-pour their detergent.
That's actually why we use our 'pump' so that you don't over pour
If you use HE detergent (like ours) and you use a small amount (the directed amount), you should be fine. So, for a large load, don't use more than 4 pumps.
Using more detergent than necessary can lead to soap buildup, which may affect the washing performance and leave residue on clothes. We actually have a specialized "rinse off" technology to help with that as well!
If you notice visible suds or residue on fabrics after a wash cycle, to reduce the amount of detergent for future loads.
How do you mix Guests on Earth concentrates?
We recommend using our concentrated vials with our full-sized bottles (vessels).
1) Fill your vessel to the fill line (marked on the vessel) with water.
2) Give your refill vial a little shake and then empty a full vial of concentrate into the vessel. Secure the trigger sprayer/soap pump.
3) Shake, and you’re ready to go.
Foaming Hand Soap: The exact amount of water is 250mL.
All-Purpose Cleaner: The exact amount of water is: 450mL
What can I clean with Guests on Earth’s All-Purpose Cleaner?
Our All-Purpose Cleaner was designed to use on non-porous surfaces like countertops and household items / surfaces that are sealed. For example, ceramic, porcelain, chrome, marble, fiberglass, granite, stainless steel and sealed wood.
It is also third-party tested streak-free, and can be used on glass and mirrors.
You can also use the spray to clean toys, high chairs, yoga mats, gym equipment, your car, and even spot-treat tough messes. Our All-Purpose Cleaner is not specifically formulated for stainless steel, however you can use it on stainless. If you have streaking with stainless steel, use a small amount of olive oil on a soft cloth (e.g. our Waffle Cleaning Cloth), and wipe in the direction of the grain (vs wiping back and forth).
If you're not sure, test on a small, inconspicuous area.
What type of water should I use to dilute the concentrate?
Tap or filtered water is fine to use. Filtered water will help to ensure that your solution is free from any impurities you may have in your tap water.
Use room temperature, warm or hot water.
What temperature should the water be?
Room temperature, warm or hot water.
Do I need to shake the bottle for the concentrate to mix with the water?
Giving the vessel a little shake once you’ve added the vial of liquid concentrate will help the concentrate quickly dissolve into the water.
How long does it take the liquid concentrate to dissolve into the water?
It takes just seconds! Give your vessel a little shake once you’ve added the liquid concentrate to the water, and you’ll be ready to go.
How long are the products good to use?
Our in-market, current batch is good for three years or more.
How long do the products last?
It depends on how much you clean and wash your hands. One 500mL bottle of All-Purpose Cleaner and one 300mL bottle of Foaming Hand Soap will typically last the average cleaner about one month.
