So accidentally bought the oxy that isnt "free". Can i still use this? What problems could i have?

I found a generic version of the "free" stuff at Dollar General. I use the "smelly" stuff for laundry.

With fermenters,yeah. It's better to soak'em clean & need only a light scrub than to scrub like mad. No scratching that way. Small stuff cleans up quick with a little lite scrubbing & a rinse.
...carboy brush for carboys? But past that...non-abrasive sponges?
When u guys are overnight soaking your fermenters carboys etc. do you make a huge batch of cleaner/sanitizer? And fill them/something else all the way up and toss all your equipment into it for he soak? Or is it enough to make smaller batches of liquids and just make sure it touches all surfaces before it sits overnight?
