Refill Foaming Hand Soap |
|
|
My little boy likes to use foaming handwash in the bathroom, so I choose a brand that has a screw on lid (that can be taken off and replaced again - some are permanently sealed). When it runs out, buy a cheaper brand of ordinary handwash liquid and dilute with water (1 part soap to 4 water) and refill the bottle. Much cheaper and lasts for ages.

Interesting -- have not yet seen the foaming dish soap; will keep an eye out. Have "just" caved in and bought the foaming dispenser around Christmas-time... only running out about now, so can't vouch for any info yet.
In reply to Post By Dede (Guest Post) (11/14/2007), w/regards to the un-springy spring, his guy seems to have figured out the mechanism behind the foam soap dispenser bottles:

Also, someone on the comments instructables.com also figured out something about soap collecting in the top part, making it hard to pump.

Good luck!

I use dollar store shampoo for the dispenser, diluted 1/2 water, 1/2 shampoo. This also works in pump soap dispensers.

When my ran out i just put Dawn dish soap in it.
Mixed it 1 part - 4 parts of water. Works great.

I have tried doing this with the Dial and also Bath and Body foam dispensers. I can't get the right mix for some odd reason. Also, my pumps on both brands don't go back to the "waiting" position so never get a full pump. Sometimes I even have to pull the pump back up into "waiting" before I can even pump it, does anyone have a solution for me on this?
Thanks

Good tip. I have never used the foaming hand wash; however do use and like the foaming dishwashing soap. I have done the same thing with that, just added ordinary liquid dish soap and water and still get the nice foam. I guess it's the special pump that does it.
