I managed to find some DP soda crystals laundry boost after calling in at most of the Sainsburys in our area and will give the stuff a go on my next brew day. I'll update this thread with how it worked out.

I use the Dri-Pak laundry boost product and it definitely leaves deposits if leaving items to soak (I'm in a hard water area) - so I'm looking into using a chelating agent. Apparently EDTA will serve this purpose. How much does PBW contain though % weight-wise?
