I found this one here about a month ago and made it. Works great/ recipe follows;
1/4 up of corn statch 1/2 c of watrer add a qt. of boiling water and mix |
I found some in both Walmart, and local grocer. Not with laundry detergent or softner, look where color blockers, some ritz...you will probably find it there
|
Wal-Mart has it.
|
There is a sight called TIPNUT.COM it has about every homemade cleaner and soaps ex you could want.Very neet sight.
|
Linit starch is excellent! I brought three huge bottles off amazon for less than $20. Hubby loves it on his uniforms too.
|
Look for STA Flo Starch it only comes in a half gallon size .
Walmart carries it and it is on the top shelf in our store. If you don't have walmart check other Grocery stores or try Dollar store. Good Luck. |
Guess only us "old people" know about liquid starch. It is in a blue plastic bottle...there is a quart bottle and a half gallon. STA-FLO is the name of it. You will find it in the laundry soap aisle of the grocery store....I can also get it at Walmart. I mix a little in a spray bottle. I also LOVE Mary Ellen's Best Press...that is a little more expensive, but also very, very nice to pres with and iron your clothes with it too.

opps......hit it twice.

I just finished using a spray bottle of Sta-Flo that I mixed up last winter. It wasn't moldy and it hadn't even gummed up the spray bottle! No, it was not in the refrigerator and we had an unusually hot summer here.

The homemade stuff is fine, but only lasts about a week in the frig before it starts getting moldy. Even Sta-Flo, once it is mixed with water, gets moldy eventually. It's really inexpensive, so you just mix up a fresh batch as needed. |
You can keep in 'fridge for a bit, but they will sour.
This is for the starch made from the box product. Sta-Flo will keep longer, it's pasturized.

Since I'm slow about getting my projects done to be washed, I'd hate to use a biodegradable product if it's going to degrade before I get the project done! Some of the recipes caution to dispose of the unused starch after a couple of days. |
