Finish Gel Dishwasher Detergent

A pour gel, not a tab. The lemon bottle is 1.6 L. The dose on the page is 40 mL in the pre-wash and 58 mL in the main wash, 98 mL in total.

Reckitt owns Finish. This gel page does not name a factory. The Canadian site is a storefront, not proof of a Canadian plant.

Run the machine at 60°C. The gel is not for hand washing. Finish says it is safe for septic systems, and that it rinses off without a film.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Finish Gel made in Canada?

Not stated. Finish Gel is a Reckitt product. The 1.6 L lemon page does not name the plant.

No. Finish Gel says it is not for hand dishwash or for wiping counters. It belongs in the machine dispenser.

60°C, which the page also prints as 140°F. Finish Gel says that is the optimal water temperature.

Is Finish Gel safe for a septic system?

Yes, the product page says so. Finish Gel is still a dishwasher detergent, not a sink soap.
