yep - I would say buildup too. There's lots of diff ways to get rid of build-up. The first step is to strip. You can do several HOT HOT HOT washes with or without a squirt of dawn. peek in the washer and ck for bubbles, when you don't see anymore you've stripped them clean. Some people use baking soda and TTO once they're stripped...search for no-detergent. SEEPAE did a little experiment on this I believe. Do you use liquid or powder? I use FBs a lot and I found that liquid caused more buildup and repelling. I'm using sportswash now but will prob switch to powder when it runs out. HTH
Need problem solving help!
Hi,
I'm a relatively new mama, and so a cd'ing novice. We are having a problem so I thought you mamas might be able to help me solve it.

We use fuzzi bunz, and hemparoos. The last few months we've had leaking problems, but when I doubled the hemparoos for night, all was well. So I thought maybe we needed a more absorbent stuffer, so I bought some premium sized CPFs. Now when I put them on her, they leak within 30 minutes. The hemparoos (even doubled) and CPFs. When I take the diaper off, they are barely wet. So, I think there must be some build-up on my FB's. Would you agree with that, or am I missing something? How do you get rid of detergent build-up? We use Purex free and clear, is there something better?
TIA!
