Kershaws Laundry Starch Powder 200g

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

Great price

Really good bit surprised at the size, very small packet... Bit deceiving... But otherwise ok

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.

Didn’t notice a huge amount of difference to the washing. Daughter used it for the slime making but didn’t work

Great quality I used for my cotton table cloth

Delighted to have found an old fashioned starch product that really does the trick of seriously starching cottons.Yes, it is a lot of work to use but I was able to give a fantastic finish with the correct appearance to all our Victorian pinafores for our theatrical production and not have to deal with all the residue on the iron plate that one often gets with the horrible spray starch. As a person who tries to avoid using sprays of any type (cancer sufferer)it was healthier to treat the number of aprons and petticoats I needed to present with this natural starch product. My only disappointment is the price, as nearly all drama groups have to work on a shoestring. Maybe if more people buy this great product, production costs might lessen and make it cheaper?

If you were considering buying this for slime activator, DON’T!!! It doesn’t work! So disappointing. I used this stuff about 5 years ago to make slime and it worked great- however I’ve read somewhere that they removed the borax (which is the ingredient that activates the slime). Not sure why, possibly because they don’t want people handling and touching the starch for health reasons. Just wish I could’ve found out before I bought it. Whatever. I do understand though why they don’t want people to potentially touch this stuff because it did start burning my skin a bit LOL. Very unfortunate but I have to make a joke out of it before I have a mental breakdown
