Description
Muddy Laundry™ Detergent Concentrate gives makers an easy starting point for creating high-performance liquid laundry products without having to build the surfactant system from scratch.
This concentrated blend may be used as supplied or modified with compatible additives to create your own laundry formulation. It is unscented as supplied, mixes without heat, and is compatible with a wide range of additives for customizing appearance or performance. It is designed for use in both standard and HE washing machines.
Using the Concentrate as Supplied
The manufacturer recommends approximately:
- Small or medium load: ¾ fl oz
- Large or heavily soiled load: 1 fl oz
These amounts apply to the undiluted concentrate. If you dilute the product, the amount needed per load will change.
Diluting or Customizing
Adding water changes the concentration. Test your finished blend for cleaning performance, stability and appropriate preservation before storing, sharing or selling it. Added fragrance and other ingredients should also be checked for compatibility.
It can be diluted as much as 70% and still be effective as a detergent.
As supplied, the manufacturer recommends approximately ¾ oz for a small or medium load and 1 oz for a large or heavily soiled load. It may also be applied directly to tough stains as a pretreatment.
We tested it at 50% Muddy Laundry 20% fragrance and 30 % water. We found it very effective as a detergent and our laundry smelled heavenly.
The manufacturer says you can use as little as 30% muddy Laundry and it will still be effective.

I used to pay a lot of money for a specialty laundry detergent for the fragrance. I am thrilled to have a great laundry detergent that’s extremely affordable and I mixed Mrs Robinson with my first bottle and couldn’t be happier. I used 30% detergent with 70% filtered water and added fragrance to what I felt was strong enough. It was about 10-15 percent of the total volume. If you haven’t tried this yet, you need this in your life. It’s saving me a lot of money.
