## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product used instead as laundry detergent or with laundry detergent?**
A: It is used with laundry detergent.

**Q: Wait, do the material of the clothes need to be 100% cotton??  What about synthetics?**
A: No. Whatever we washed was not 100% cotton. Did it work?? I don't know since we use lots of sunscreen anyway and stay covered up

**Q: I need to know if this product blocks both UV A and UV B radiation. If so what is the SPF rating it provides? Thank you.**
A: Package says "helps block more than 96%  of the sun's harmful rays ... UBF of 30 (ultraviolet Protection Factor) which is a measurement of a fabric's capability to prevent harmful UV rays from reaching your skin. It is similar to SPF ratings for sunscreen."  That's all I know - but the company is very helpful based on one phone call to them.

**Q: I clean some of my clothes in the dryer with Woolite dry cleaning cloths.  Any idea if I could use this in that way?**
A: This is a powder that is added to the wash cycle so, it will not work in the dryer.

    The answer to SPF clothing woes
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2012*

I am so glad to have found this stuff. It has saved me a bunch of money. I have skin and sun issues and have to protect myself from too much sun exposure. You can go to a retailer and spend a lot of money on sun-protective clothing that doesn't fit right and is expensive. Or you can just wash your regular clothes in this stuff. Most of my clothing is cotton, and it works well. It gradually washes out after about 20 washings, so I wash all my cottons twice a year in it (figuring I wear stuff once a week). It is far cheaper than buying SPF clothes that lose their protection after a year of wearing and washing them. This way, I can basically wear anything I want, even if it didn't have the SPF protection in it when I bought it.It's very easy to use -- just put it in the bottom of the washing machine as it's filling up.Can't recommend this enough.Update, January 5, 2013.I've now been using this product for several years, and wanted to provide an update to my original thoughts about it. I still love this, and in fact it has probably extended my life by several years. No joke -- exposure to UV rays is a pretty serious thing for me. Several reviews have mentioned something like, "Who knows if it works or not?" I just want to reassure people that I am living proof that it works. If I wear regular clothing without Sun Guard in it, then my skin breaks out in hives within ten to thirty minutes of exposure. I'm talking about skin underneath clothes! If, however, I wear cotton clothing that has been washed in Sun Guard, nothing happens. No hives. So I know it's working.I have never experimented with investigating how long the Sun Guard lasts once you wash it into your clothes. They say 20 washings, I believe. I wash it in to things like cotton shirts and pants perhaps once every 25 or 30 washings, and I have never noticed a difference in effectiveness.What's not to like?

    My springtime no-brainer! Especially good for kids clothing!
  

*by D***K on Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2019*

I've been using this for YEARS. It is a no-brainer for me. In the spring I wash all the clothes (long and short sleeve t-shirts, thin leggings and bandanas) with Rit Sun Guard and they are good to go. Put your clothes in the machine, add your detergent and a packet of this powder, turn on the washer. Done. That's all you have to do, just tear open the packet and pour it in and wash as usual. Pkg says it lasts through 20 washes. It doesn't leave any smell or weird texture on fabric either. We wear bandanas in the summer because they are lightweight (try getting a kid to wear a hat on the beach!) and since using this product on cotton bandanas we have no burned or pink scalps. (Also keeps color treated hair from fading in the sun if you wear a treated bandana) By using this on the clothes I only have to worry about getting sunscreen on face, neck and exposed arms or legs. It is priceless when you consider the dangers of repeated sunburns (especially on lighter skinned people) throughout childhood. Sure, we wear rashguards on the beach but when playing outdoors in parks, zoos, baseball in fields each day, we've had no burns through thin summer shirts. No need to miss out on outdoor fun just be sensible and protect the skin as much as possible. This product makes it easier. I highly recommend it.

    Recommended by my dermatologist
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2020*

I use this on my family's cotton clothing for added sun protection. It was recommended to me by my dermatologist. My concerns were that it might discolor the clothing or that it would irritate my child's skin - it does neither! My son has had no reaction to it in his clothing. My only complaint is that the instructions aren't really made for front loader machines. "mix powder with 2 cups of water and pour into the area that you normally add powder"... my powder tray does not hold 2 cups of water! I usually just dissolve the solution in water then pour it on the clothes once the machine has started to wet them. Seems to work. Someone complained that it doesn't work on polyester fabric, however that's not a problem as polyester already has sun protection by simply being polyester - look at any sun protection clothing, the main fabric is polyester for that reason.
