Combine the cream of tartar and baking soda in a medium size bowl. Add the vinegar and mix until the ingredients form a soft paste. Add the soap flakes. Transfer to a jar of bottle with a secure lid and label it clearly.

To use, apply with a steel wool pad, then rinse off with warm water. Store out of the reach of children. It should keep for 1-2 years.

Where do you find soap flakes? Is powdered detergent the same thing?
