You've got questions. We've got answers... and lots of them.


What is Cheer® For Darks?
Cheer For Darks is specially designed to clean and protect your black and dark-coloured fabrics and provides great clean on dark clothes.

Which laundry detergent should I use, liquid or powder?
Choose the one that best fits your lifestyle, but you may want to keep both on hand. Liquid laundry detergents tend to be better at removing oily and greasy stains and are excellent for pretreating stains. Powder detergents tend to work better on mud and clay.

How do I get the best cleaning performance for my laundry?
We suggest these steps to achieve the best cleaning results:
  1. Sort your clothes before laundering, and wash similar colours together.
  2. Pretreat obvious stains.
  3. Always follow fabric care labels for laundering instructions.
  4. Use the warmest water safe for the garments (be sure to check care tags).
  5. The way you fill your machine is also important. We suggest that you:
    • Start the water in your washer.
    • Add Cheer.
    • Then add your clothes.
  6. Use the amount of Cheer recommended below. Use more Cheer if you have very hard water, large loads, heavy soils, or a large-capacity washer.
  7. Do not overload your washer or dryer.

How much Cheer should I use in my laundry?
The easiest way to measure the right amount of Cheer is to use the scoop in the carton of Cheer powder or the measuring cap on Cheer liquid laundry detergent. If you don't have these, we suggest the following:
Powder Cheer: medium load ~3/8 cup; large load ~1/2 cup
Liquid Cheer: medium load ~1/5 cup; large load ~1/4 cup

Can I use chlorine bleach with Cheer laundry detergent?
Yes. If you wish to use chlorine bleach, it should be added to the bleach dispenser in the washer or added five minutes after the wash cycle begins.

Can I wash clothes in cold water?
Cheer cleans in any water temperature.

How does Cheer laundry detergent protect my clothes?
Cheer helps protect your clothes because:
  • Cheer cleans in any water temperature, which means you can wash your fabrics in cold water.
  • Following fabric care tag instructions also helps prevent dye transfer. Remember, to help protect your favourite colours, follow fabric care tag instructions and wash with Cheer liquid laundry detergent.

Should my bottle or box of Cheer be filled to the top?
No. Packages are filled by weight, not by volume.
  • Liquids need space at the top to help with pouring.
  • Powders may settle during shipment, leaving some space at the top of the carton.
