| Fabric softener | Fabric softener (also called Fabric Conditioner) is used to prevent static cling and makes the fabric softer. Popular brand names include Lenor, Lenor/Downy and Comfort. Most washing machines have a dispenser to add liquid fabric softener to the load of laundry automatically on the final rinse; in launderettes it may need to be added manually. Some brands of washing powder have fabric conditioning built-in which is claimed to save money when compared to buying ordinary washing powder and fabric softener separately. There are some fabric softeners that besides softening clothes also claim to make ironing easier whereas some claim to make clothes dry faster. (references) | ||
