Title: Sugar Soap ?
Post by cubetwo on Nov 19^th, 2015 at 9:02pm

Can anyone tell me if there is a Spanish equivalent of good old fashioned sugar soap?

They will try to sell you caustic soda which is not what you want. I have done a quick search and others have sought this handy powder with no useful result. However good old Ebay will deliver at a price. I think in this day and age you will have a big problem taking on board diddlee airlines and the like but Les the van would bring it over for 5 euro or so. Otherwise have it posted over see below.

Just found this:-

Might be available here as quite a few of the ferritarias sell HG products.

Well done Bigyin, HG products are sold in the ferritaria Garcia next to Carrefour in Tortosa. Bet it's not 4 quid in there. >:(

I searched the main shed web sites and found plenty of HG products but not this one specifically. Garcia sounds like a good shout. I haven't found them overpriced in the past in fact cheaper than most for many products. Very helpful too.
