Gear Guard Advanced DNase + Lipase enzyme laundry booster

Gear Guard Advanced

DNase + Lipase

Your detergent has gaps. We built the fix.

Most detergents lack two key enzymes: dnase and lipase. They have the biggest impact on the residues that skin contact leave behind, the kind that lead to odour.
Gear Guard Advanced does the job your detergent keeps missing.

What's in Gear Guard
Water

The carrier that spreads the enzyme evenly through your wash. Gear Guard is a concentrate, so there's less water, a smaller bottle, and lighter shipping.

PreservativesMCI & MI

These keep the formula stable on a warm, humid laundry shelf. They're used well below regulatory limits for wash-off products, and the wash and rinse dilute them further. They're a known cause of contact allergy in people already sensitised to isothiazolinones.

If that's you, try a single bottle first. Love the wash, or it's on us. Full refund, shipping included, no time limit and you keep the bottles.
dnase OriginalAdvanced

Shed skin cells leave sticky eDNA in your fabrics, and it acts like a glue that holds body oils and grime in the fibres. dnase cuts that glue so your detergent can finally rinse it all away.

lipase Advanced

Breaks down body oil, sebum and grease, the fatty film that odour-causing bacteria feed on. Less fuel, less odour.

    why it works

    Detergent cleans the outside of fabric fibres, not what's trapped deep inside.

    Every time skin touches fabric, it leaves behind organic matter, body oils, sweat, skin cells. These feed the bacteria that live on your skin and transfer to your clothes with every wear. Those bacteria leave behind waste deep in the fibres that your detergent can't reach, and it builds up with every wear. Two enzymes, two jobs.
    One starves the bacteria. The other clears what they leave behind.
    Miss either, and the cycle starts again.

    Lipase

    Less fuel for bacteria

    Skin oils are a major food source for odour-causing bacteria. Lipase breaks those oils down so your wash rinses them away, leaving bacteria less to feed on. It's safe on wool, silk and cashmere.

    DNase

    Loosens what traps everything else

    As skin cells break down, they release eDNA, a sticky residue that clings to fibres and traps oils and dirt. Left there, those oils go off and dull the fabric. Our dnase breaks the residue down so your wash can carry it all away, leaving clothes and fabrics brighter, softer and smelling like nothing. The good kind of nothing.

    Already covered for Lipase?

    Gear Guard Original has just the DNase.
    Nothing spare, just precision.

    Good questions

    The bits people ask before their first wash.

    What ingredients are in Gear Guard Advanced?

    Water
    The carrier that spreads the enzyme evenly through your wash. Gear Guard is a concentrate, so there's less water, a smaller bottle, and lighter shipping.

    Preservatives (MCI & MI)
    These keep the formula stable on a warm, humid laundry shelf. They're used well below regulatory limits for wash-off products, and the wash and rinse dilute them further. They're a known cause of contact allergy in people already sensitised to isothiazolinones. If that's you, try a single bottle first. Love the wash, or it's on us. Full refund, shipping included, no time limit and you keep the bottles.

    dnase (Original and Advanced)
    Shed skin cells leave sticky eDNA in your fabrics, and it acts like a glue that holds body oils and grime in the fibres. dnase cuts that glue so your detergent can finally rinse it all away.

    lipase (Advanced)
    Breaks down body oil, sebum and grease, the fatty film that odour-causing bacteria feed on. Less fuel, less odour.

    How do I use Gear Guard products in a top or front loader?

    One capful per wash, or three pumps if you're using our pump dispenser on a 375ml bottle.

    Where it goes depends on your machine and detergent.

    No detergent tray
    Pour Gear Guard into the drum with your detergent, on top of your clothes.

    Detergent tray + liquid detergent
    Add Gear Guard to the tray with your detergent.

    Detergent tray + powder detergent
    Put your powder in the drum under your clothes, and Gear Guard in the tray. Powder and liquid mixed together in the tray can turn gluggy. It won't hurt your clothes, it's just messier.

    Is Gear Guard Advanced safe on delicates and period underwear?

    Yes! DNase and lipase are two of the enzymes that are safe to use on natural fibres as they do not attack the proteins in the fibres themselves. This means fabrics like silk, wool and other natural fibres are safe to use Gear Guard Advanced on.

    What temperature should I wash at using Gear Guard?

    Gear Guard's sweet spot is around 40°C (about 104°F). It will work up to 60°C (140°F), though not recommended above that. Around 88°F (31°C) is just the start of its effective range warmer is better for enzyme activity.

    Can I hand wash with Gear Guard?

    Yes. It's a good option for the pieces you'd rather keep out of the machine, like lingerie, activewear, wool and silk.

    Use half a capful, or one pump with the pump dispenser on a 375ml bottle, along with your usual detergent. Mix both into warm water, around 40°C or as warm as the care label allows, before adding your clothes. Then hand wash gently and rinse well.

    If you have sensitive skin or a known isothiazolinone sensitivity, wear gloves while you hand wash.

    I have a teen wrestler and his workout clothes are enough to make me want to give up on life and put them in the trash. Now, even if they've been sitting wet for a few days, they come out of the dryer looking like new and smelling like nothing. I hope to never be without Gear Guard.

    There are other enzyme boosters with DNase, but this is the only one that's just DNase — which means I can use it on silk, wool and other natural fabrics. After a season of hunting, our wool undergarments needed some help and Gear Guard did an amazing job.

    I was worried I'd have to throw out my husband's favourite shirts. Nothing really shifted it until I tried Gear Guard. The funk has stayed away. It saved them from going in the bin.
