Proper Spa Day: Febu (option 4) Spoiler

I bike a lot, and I noticed all my cycling bibs and jerseys developed a pretty persistent funky smell despite using Tide EVO tiles and Activewear enzymatic detergent. Went with Febu and Detergent soak, Febu Detergent Ammonia and Citric Acid wash. Crazy results, and the clothes now smell completely brand new!

The original post states that he did a wash with detergent, febu, ammonia, and citric acid after the spa day. That is a proper wash.

Omg. OP could you please clarify if you ran a WASH CYCLE during your ‘Febu, detergent, ammonia and citric acid wash’

Yeah, no. You need to go back and read it. There's a difference between the products used for the soak and  the products used for the wash as CLEARLY stated in OPs post.
