Traditional Laundry Starch (2)

No idea how it works on laundry but it is brilliant for slime! We diluted it using 3 parts water to 2 parts starch powder, then mixed it roughly 2 parts PVA glue to 1 part starch solution. No real measurements, we just eyeballed it and added more PVA if too firm / more starch if too sticky. It worked brilliantly; daughter is delighted and was occupied with slime all day! We only used a couple tablespoons of powder too, so a little goes a long way and it will last us ages. People who use this for laundry - please keep buying it so they'll keep producing it and we can keep making slime!

It is very okay on the fabrics I used it on.

Bought to make slime, made a bottle full of activator and didn't work added little by little to glue but didn't seem to work at all. Made a smaller activator, you need to put ALOT I mean ALOTTT! Of starch will a lot less water u think to make it work. Slime is good although quite sticky but if add more it'll go runny. The packet comes so so much smaller than I thought it would people are selling this for £9-15+ Would never spend that much on this as it's very small and happy I only spent £2.72 on it.

I had been looking for starch powder to use for our altar linen at my church. Boots used to do it but in recent years they have stopped its production. I tried this not knowing whether it would be good for purpose. When I got it out to use looked at the instructions and I like other purchasers thought scoop, what scoop? I thought back to when I was using my old starch and used 3 tablespoons of powder. I was absolutely delighted with the results, it did feel a little bit stiffer than it needed to be so perhaps next time I will try 2 tablespoons instead and see if this works. I am thrilled that I have found this and will continue to use it, thank you

This is great for making slime- at first. This really annoyed me as it has now stopped working, I personally think it has a date- but yeah worked but doesn’t now!😢

If you avoid starching anything (as I do) but find that you have got to starch an item to be really stiff - this did a good job. It was slightly by trial, error and common sense as the instructions are for an initial litre of water & I was only starching one small item requiring not a lot of liquid. I can be more frugal in future.

Great price

Tried both methods in instructions on packet. First in washing machine, useless. Then hand wash, again useless. I couldn’t recommend buying this at all I’m afraid. I like some other reviewers, suspect it is just corn flour. It certainly looked exactly it.
