I have a variety of fleece liners, cuddle cups etc.

I have been washing them in Ecover 0% on a 40 wash in a horse bag, I typically split it into two loads in a 9kg machine.

It just isn’t getting them clean, they smell okay after a wash, but they’re visibly stained.

what do other people use on stains?
 
Is your wash bag big enough? And are you leaving enough room in it?
We use non bio powder and don’t have any problems with the stains not coming out but I am really careful not to stuff too much in!
 
I think its big enough, amazon says is 80cm by 100cm. I was the liner on its own and put the washable puppy pad in with two cosies.

I’m tempted to wash it in bio to see what it comes out like, I would obviously then do a second wash in non-bio and a good rinse.
 
I use non bio powder, whichever is cheapest wherever I'm shopping. Most marks come out in the wash. I find red pepper stains can be stubborn but if it doesn't come out in one wash it comes out in the next.
 
What is it stained with? Urine or just dirty? I've noticed I have to select long cycle to get them cleaned properly. So if I do half load I select cycle which is 1,5hrs and if full load then 2,3hrs. Once I made mistake and did half load on 50min cycle and tumble dryed and it wasn't good idea 😳
But it could be it's not washing properly because of the bag?

If urine is the issue you can always put the urine stained pieces on short cycle (I use 20mins) on cold/30 degrees in bio powder and then add the rest and do full cycle with non bio. Urine can stain if it's washed on high.
Only stain I had was tomato or red pepper, but it washes away eventually.
