HOMEMADE "SHOUT" LAUNDRY STAIN REMOVER

To make "Shout" laundry stain remover I used the following directions. We tried the results against the 'real' "Shout" and like it equally as well, if not better. Try it and let me know what you think!

MIX TOGETHER:
2/3 cup of Dawn liquid dish soap
2/3 cup of Ammonia (a cleaning product which acts kind-of like a bleach BUT we did spray this on colored clothes and leave it there for over an hour, then washed it out with no ill effects. BUT if you have a very favorite colored shirt, or whatever, please use at your own risk).
6 TB Baking soda
2 cups of warm water (warm to hotter will help the baking soda to dissolve)

After mixing these together ...you can start by mixing the hotter water with the baking soda to dissolve it first then add the dish soap, water and ammonia, (please keep your face away from the ammonia bottle),...... Place in any spray bottle, (such as an empty "Shout" bottle?), and use! Give it a good shake before using it each time. Spray the stain, rub it together, let it soak a few minutes, Wash.  PLEASE try this on a colorful rag or something to see if it takes the color out of your clothes before using it on colors ..as I said it didn't take the color out of ours.
