FOUR DIFFERENT CANS OF STARCH.

#1  ROBIN starch - contained 400ml

#2  CHARM starch contained 400ml (including extra 33 1/3rd special offer) normally 300ml.

#3  ADRITT starch contained 500ml

#4  FAULTLESS starch contained 585ml

We (three of us) looked for a nice fresh crisp finish on 4 pillowcases.

The results - by unanimous agreement - were as follows:

#1   - ROBIN starch gave by far the best crisp finish - contained a good proportion of starch.

#2   - ADRITT came a close second. Used to be my personal favourite up to now.

#3  -  CHARM was third. Not bad if you run out of the top two.

#4  -   FAULTLESS starch contained a surprising amount of water and not a lot of starch -  gave a limpish finish, was the cheapest of the four, and good for ironing thick jeans that require sufficient moisture to obtain a smooth finish.

NB: The very best spray starch was distributed by the Blind Society. It smelt delightful and contained loads of starch which mean't you only had to use a small amount when ironing. Lasted ages.  Please leave a message on my blog if you know where it can now be obtained.

Thanks for the heads-up. I know which one I'll purchase next time.
