Ajax washing powder - Australian TV commercial

Thanks for posting. Times were much simpler then. I hope Judy wasn't scared of heights.

I distinctly recall this same jingle used in the U.S. for a detergent called Quik-Solv.

I've never seen this kind of Ajax powder in the US. I've only seen the plain white powder when Colgate Palmolive owned Ajax detergent (still own the kitchen cleanser by the same name), Fab (US version was originally detergent+fabric softener), & Dynamo in the US. Phoenix Brands now owns these brands and don't find it as good. Plus I find most stores in my area don't wanna carry their products.

Takes me right back to my childhood. Thanks!

I must admit I never saw any Ajax detergent commercial quite like this! This appears to be from roughly the same era as the "White Knight" commercials in the United States, but this one grabs your eye just as dramatically as anything Ajax ever did in the states!
