Rockin' a Soak is an effective way to get rid of built up minerals and detergent, which is known to cause diaper rash and smell issues. It is important to pay special attention to the fabrics that you are soaking however, to make sure that you are getting the most out of your diaper purchases. Generally things that contain PUL/TPU or natural fibers require special care, and should not be soaked more than once a month and only for short periods of time. Things like microfiber are able to be soaked for longer periods, and are usually the cause of smell issues. So concentrate your efforts on those items.

We recommend soaking for no more than 30-60 minutes, and only on an as-needed basis. We do not recommend soaking before every wash or wetpailing.

Disclaimer: Items like PUL or TPU need to be washed with care, so please refer to the manufacturers washing instructions for more details. Avoid excessive soaking of PUL/TPU and natural fibers to extend their life span.
