I was reading a discussion today regarding Synthrapol. Synthrapol is a cleaner made for wool, and apparently quite toxic. Here's the MSDS information for those that may be interested.
I'm not going to go into the pros and cons of using a product like that, instead I'm keeping it simple.
Wool is very much like human hair. It has a cuticle, and being so close to hair in it's composition why not just clean it with a gentle shampoo? Why does one need fance "wool cleaners"? In my estimation you don't.
Shampoo, and I use generic cleans my yarns and wools just fine, and I like the scent of apples or lavender in my shampoos.
Why would anyone be needing toxic chemicals on a product that will more than likely be used, worn or cuddled by a person? It just makes no sense to me.
I sell and love Unicorn Wool Wash and Fibre rinse. To me those two products are as luxury as I'll ever get. I do like Euclan also. But for the majority when I want to wash my yarns or my wools, I reach for the bottle of Suave.
