    Cleaning mix?

    The only practical difference I know of is that with harder water (more minerals) it takes more soap because the soap uses it's superpowers to "sequester", in other words "get around" the minerals in the same way it grabs dirt. Since it's getting used up on the minerals it needs more soap to...

    Dawn Dishsoap
