Hey an amateur DIY lotion maker here. I have a thing to add... Any homemade mixture with water needs preservative if you want to safely store them. The PH of the soapy mixture will prevent against bacteria for the most part but there is still a risk of yeast and fungus. I do the grading of the soap and then add baking soda and just use it as a powder detergent. Other than that I love the idea you spread, the world is a better place with them in it.
Awesome initiative, and I did learn quite a bit of new stuff 👍 The only minor thing I didn't like was the "chemical == bad" bits. Pretty much everything around us is some kind of chemical, some harmful, some harmless. Still some great information in here, keep it up!
Knit fabric can always go back to it's original form if layed out flat to dry. In difficult cases you can pin it down to some surface while wet to force it to dry in the original shape.
looks like a contradiction: dry clothes under direct sun light to kill bacteria, but hide from UV to avoid fading colors :) I dry clothes on a drying rack indoors. If the air is too humid, i use a room fan to make them dry faster.
great info for me who is ... cloth challenged haha for lack of better word. I just can't muster up the interest for clothes nor fashion even at gunpoint haha.
Cool. Hey, you might find this interesting. In the news today, I heard about a Japanese company called JEPLAN. They have a project called BRING that is recovering polyester from unwearable clothing and textile scrap! This was a new idea for me. Have you heard of this before?
I wouldn't say they 'produce water'. Vinegar is essentially a mixture between acetic acid and water (so it's not per se formed). Though they would, to a certain degree, indeed cancel each other out in terms of acidity.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I have a question about rust stains. Can the rust stains be removed, even if they are already longer there and have been washed in a washing machine many times after the rust stain occurred? Or can the method that you described only be used with fresh rust stains?
You guys are spreading yourselves really thin by tackling way too many issues. Plastic recycling, environmentally friendly laundering and protecting orangutans? Why not work until you have a decisive victory on one issue first before proceeding to the next one. Precious Plastics is an brilliant initiative combining DIY with reducing plastic waste. By taking up every little issue, you're starving it of the necessary resources it needs to achieve its goal. You're also fatiguing the awareness and interest you worked so hard to develop. Stay focused and fight a single battle.
Each of us have multiple strong interests & if these topics are clearly identified as eg "# fixing fashion" then a wider audience and 👍will benefit our heroes at :- ONE ARMY & PRECISION PLASTICS 😊😮 I do see your issue❤
Being a chemist myself, I'm also not really in favour of using the term 'chemical' to address all unwanted substances. Though I of course understand what is referred to, it feels still unnecessarily ambiguous. I really enjoy these kind of initiatives, but it's really important, certainly with respect to keeping persuasiveness, to not use certain terms too loosely. You'll not be taking seriously if you label all 'chemical' things as bad and all 'natural' things as good. I'd strongly encourage @One Army to rethink how they use certain words.
The Fixing Fashion Initiative was what was missing from my life. Haha. THANK YOU TO THE MOON

#fixingfashion is a wonderful initiative! Thanks guys!
Great, new information in every video. Keep it up.

Learned a few useful tips. Thanks Army!
Thanks for this new project! I will learn a lot!
Great video! I know that I will always find myself coming to this

Not a chemist, but I'm pretty sure baking soda and vinegar cancel each other out and produce water? Correct me if I'm completely off 😅

How do I remove blood from clothing ?
With spit? Really ? I'm gonna need a lot of spit. How long do I let the spit soak for ?
All the labels in my clothes are faded.... Also jeans, I shower or swimm in a river with them on
What if it's diarrhea?
Also soap, vinegar, baking soda and water is chemical
привет. А можно на русском озвучивать. Спасибо.
Dave! No!! Please - No side camera!!! It's a slippery slope, and distracting af.

I do see your issue❤
The "natural" vs. "chemical" comparison was unnecessary and not scientific, everything is chemical, otherwise an interesting video.
i think by chemical most mean harmful and not harmful.
@@Philonix that stupid. There are 2 other words for those exact concepts, it's "harmful" and "harmless".
It’s considering environmental impact more so using chemical as a place holder name for that
