If it's powdered, are their little colored bits in the powder? I 
think they add a certain amount of ingredient in both liquids and 
powders that act like blueing.


It's a powder and it's completely white, no colored 
bits.  It's a Safeway house brand and unfortunately, I emptied the 
box into my detergent bin and threw it away so I don't even know 
the exact name of the product. I do remember that it's a 
concentrated detergent where you need very little--1/4 to 3/8 cup 
does a large load beautifully.

I would try washing with Orvus or Synthrapol.
