Rrman, are you talking about the borax, baking soda mix? I am planning to try it as well. Glad to hear it works. My borax box says it contains sodium tetra borate. This is the right stuff-right?

I finally took the red pill. I have a lot of catching up to do. Please excuse my ignorance.

I'm not exactly sure the difference going on.. I've been having the white residue issue for quite a while (bay area of commiefornia)..

It has ended with the latest batch of Costco brand liquid detergent. Not sure what's been changed, but it appears that my dishes are getting clean again.

Awhile back I thought I was out of DW soap, queried online, and just used a couple drops of regular dishsoap with some baking soda to cut the suds. Seemed to work FINE. Of course I don't know what was the phosphate content of the dishsoap, but I bet half the mass of regular DW soap is just non-sudsing agents. That stuff can't be so heavy just by itself with merely cleaning agents.

You can buy commercial Cascade with the old formula on the internet - institutional users are exempt - go figure

But I started making my own with 1 part TSP, 1Part Super Wash Soda, and 1/2 part citric acid all ordered from Amazon. Two teaspoons for each wash and it works great got all the film off my glasses.
