Product Description
Highly concentrated "industrial strength" liquid textile softener which restores the soft feel (hand) that the chemical processes in dyeing sometimes remove. Also prevents needle cutting on cotton knits if you soften them before sewing. Much more concentrated than conventional fabric softeners. After dyeing, washing and rinsing, add 1/4 cup to a washing machine load, (or 1 teaspoon per gallon). Agitate 10 minutes in hottest water and rinse in warm water. Trust us, after using Milsoft, you are going to want to take this fabric to bed and curl up with it! Caution, never use a fabric softener on the fabric before it is dyed, as it leaves a residue that can cause the fabric to dye unevenly.

consistency so thick it's difficult to dissolve even in hot water. the jacquard textile softener was much better that way.

I was worried it would not do much, but perhaps because I sometimes use a higher concentration of dye or because we have hard water, my clothing became noticeably softer after rinsing with this. I don't know if it is better than products from the grocery store, but this does work and I will keep using it.

I dyed a few silk scarves without the milsoft and a then a batch with the milsoft. The difference was very notable, and it was really easy to use.

Most of what I sell are belly dance veils in silk. The way the silk feels after using Milsoft makes it so much more pleasant to handle and thus more easy to sell.

Really makes the painted scarves soft again - I use Dyn-a-flow and Setasilk, and sometimes after painting they don't have that soft feel, so I wash them in Milsoft.

I use this regularly on all my laundry. If it arrives in a gloppy state, I pour a little into a jar, add water, cover and shake. Then I add it to the filling washer. Blobs can remove color--but the UNSCENTED softness of the finished laundry is well worth a little extra care.

I hadn't bothered with this step until recently, when I decided I wanted a more professional end product. It really does restore that nice soft feeling that is often lost during the dyeing process - I'm glad I decided to give it a try!
