About this product
Active Fresh fabric rinse for lingering laundry odors
Downy Rinse Out Odor Laundry Rinse in Active Fresh helps break down and rinse away odor-causing residues trapped in washable fabrics. This item is one 48 fluid ounce bottle, equivalent to 1.5 US quarts or 1.41 liters. It fits a laundry routine focused on sweaty activewear, musty towels and clothing with smells that return after washing. The liquid works alongside your regular laundry detergent and leaves a light, clean Active Fresh scent.
A cleansing rinse with a low-pH formula
The low-pH formula contains citric acid as a cleansing agent, sodium citrate, propylene glycol, a processing aid, a stabilizer, fragrance and water. It helps rinse away residues that can hold odors in fabric fibers. Downy positions this fabric rinse as a replacement for traditional liquid fabric softener in the rinse step. Use it when removing lingering smells and buildup is your priority, while retaining your normal detergent for the main wash.
Light fragrance without dyes or heavy perfumes
Active Fresh offers an energizing, clean fragrance. The formula is free of dyes and heavy perfumes, but it still contains fragrance. That distinction helps when comparing a lightly scented rinse with an unscented product. Check the complete ingredient list if your household avoids particular fragrance ingredients. The rinse can be used on machine-washable activewear, baby clothes, towels and delicates, with the garment care label determining the permitted cycle and temperature.
Add it through the fabric-softener dispenser
Add your usual laundry detergent first. For a normal load, fill the liquid fabric-softener dispenser about halfway with Downy Rinse, approximately one-quarter cup, following this bottle’s directions. Use more for tough odors as directed, while respecting the dispenser’s maximum fill line. The washer releases it during rinsing. If adding directly, add it during the rinse cycle according to the product and machine instructions. Keep the rinse step distinct from measuring detergent for the main wash.
HE, standard and cold-water compatibility
This liquid fabric rinse works in high-efficiency and standard washing machines, including cold-water washing. Use it for washable fabrics that need help with odors such as sweat, mustiness or food smells. Do not use it with bleach. Read the current bottle directions before combining laundry products, close the cap after use and keep the bottle out of reach of children and pets. Measure for each load and follow the washer instructions for its fabric-softener compartment.

About this product
Active Fresh fabric rinse for a detergent-and-rinse routine
Downy Rinse Out Odor Active Fresh Laundry Rinse comes in one 25.5-fluid-ounce bottle, equivalent to 754 milliliters. This low-pH rinse works with your usual detergent to help remove stubborn odors and residue buildup from suitable washable fabrics. Choose it for an extra rinsing step on everyday laundry, activewear and household textiles. Its Active Fresh scent adds a clean, vibrant fragrance as the laundry is rinsed.
A residue-rinsing formula for suitable washable items
The rinse helps break down and rinse away odor-causing residues within fibers. Use it on suitable washable activewear, everyday clothing, towels, delicates, baby clothes and bedding when their care labels allow the selected wash. It takes the place of traditional liquid fabric softener in the dispensing routine. Follow garment care and the washer instructions when choosing the cycle, temperature and rinse settings.
Use the bottle’s quarter-cup starting amount
Add your usual detergent first. Pour the rinse into the fabric-softener dispenser, starting with about half of the dispenser, approximately one-quarter cup, for a normal load. Use more for tougher odors as directed. At two fluid ounces per quarter-cup dose, this bottle supplies twelve complete doses with 1.5 fluid ounces remaining. Higher amounts reduce the washes available, so measure for the actual laundry load.
Citric acid and six supporting ingredients
The seven ingredients are citric acid, sodium citrate, propylene glycol, C12-16 pareth, sodium cumenesulfonate, fragrance and water. Citric acid provides cleansing, sodium citrate serves as a water softener and the other supporting ingredients help form the liquid rinse. It is made without dyes or heavy perfumes but contains fragrance and fragrance allergens. Review the full ingredient information if you avoid particular components.
Follow the machine’s softener-dispenser or rinse-cycle method
Use the fabric-softener dispenser or directed rinse-cycle arrangement according to your washer instructions, with the detergent already added separately. The rinse occupies the liquid-softener step rather than being mixed with liquid fabric softener. Keep the current bottle’s instructions available to check the amount and placement when laundry or equipment changes. Select a wash cycle appropriate for the care requirements of the items.
Do not combine with bleach and retain the full precautions
Do not use this rinse with bleach. Keep the original bottle closed and out of children’s reach. Wipe spills clean as directed, and follow the complete precautions and accidental-exposure instructions on the container. Avoid swallowing the liquid or getting it into the eyes. Store the bottle securely with its ingredient information and dosing directions available for subsequent loads of suitable washable laundry.

Questions about this product
How many normal doses are in the 25.5-fluid-ounce bottle?
The normal starting amount is approximately one-quarter cup, equal to two fluid ounces. That supplies twelve complete doses with 1.5 fluid ounces remaining in this bottle.

Can I use Active Fresh rinse instead of detergent?
Add your usual detergent separately first. Active Fresh is a low-pH fabric rinse for helping remove odors and residue buildup during rinsing. It takes the place of liquid fabric softener in the dispensing step. Use the fabric-softener dispenser or rinse-cycle method permitted by your washer, following the bottle instructions and garment care. Do not use it with bleach.
Is Active Fresh dye free, and does it still contain fragrance?
It is made without dyes or heavy perfumes and still contains Active Fresh fragrance and fragrance allergens. Its ingredients also include citric acid, sodium citrate, propylene glycol, C12-16 pareth, sodium cumenesulfonate and water. Review the complete ingredients for components you avoid. Suitable washable laundry includes activewear, towels, delicates and baby clothes when their care labels permit the chosen cycle.
