Lemi Shine keeps dishes
and glassware shining

while increasing the performance
and life of automatic dishwashers

Dishwasher detergents are not formulated to remove hard water minerals during the main wash cycle. Lemi Shine solves this problem. Combined with your auto dish detergent, Lemi Shine removes tough hard water spots, stains, and film during the main wash cycle.

You will be pleased to know that Lemi Shine is comprised of 100% all natural fruit acids and oils. That’s right, Lemi Shine contains no phosphates or fillers.

What is hard water?

Water containing dissolved carbonates of calcium and magnesium which inhibit the formation of lather with soap or detergent. When hard water dries on dishes and glassware, the carbonates are deposited out as “lime scale.”

1 grain = 1/7000 of 1 lb.

An average household of 4, with water hardness of 7 grains per gallon, would have the equivalent of 146 lbs. of rock in their water supply in a given year.

Another way to think of it is that a common aspirin tablet is approximately 5 grains. A household with a water hardness of 10 grains per gallon would have the equivalent of the weight of 2 aspirin tablets dissolved per gallon of water.

The water in your house may be “hard” or “soft” depending on its mineral content. Water that contains more than one grain of calcium and magnesium per gallon is said to be “hard.”

First Time Use

We recommend doing an overnight soak. To perform an overnight soak, pour 1/4 cup of Lemi Shine into the bottom of empty dishwasher. Turn the dishwasher on and allow it to fill with water. Once filled, allow the cycle to run for 5 minutes. Pause the dishwasher’s cycle and soak overnight. (Do not allow to drain). The following morning restart the dishwasher and continue the wash cycle. The overnight soak allows Lemi Shine time to remove years of mineral deposits and stains from the internal components of the dishwasher.

Using Lemi Shine Every Time

Using Lemi Shine with every load will keep hard water minerals such as lime, calcium, and iron from building up in the internal components of the dishwasher while keeping your dishes and glassware sparkling!

Fill main wash receptacle of dishwasher with Lemi Shine and prewash receptacle with your favorite detergent. If only one receptacle is present, fill half with Lemi Shine and half with detergent. (Powder detergents recommended) Start dishwasher cycle as normal, Depending on your water hardness, after your first few uses, Lemi Shine may be mixed 5O/50 (half & half) with detergent in the main wash receptacle.

Check manufacturers’ suggested cleaning instructions on all dishwasher safe items. Not recommended for painted glassware, painted mugs, aluminum, enamel coated silverware or fine china. Do not use with non stick coated cookware or removable stove top components. Do not mix with liquid bleach. If eye contact occurs, flush eyes with water. If swallowed, drink plenty of water to dilute. If any irritation develops, contact your Physician. Keep out of reach of children.
