I have a stick of gall soap I bought from Real Goods many years ago.
They stopped selling it for some reason. It works wonders on stains,
especially of "biological" origin such as sweat stains and blood stains.
I think I bought it because when I used to live in New Hampshire, the
deer flies would bite me while I was running. I wouldn't notice it until
they had taken a good chunk of skin away and there would be blood
staining my shirt! I have never had any problems with the soap affecting
dyed fabric. I have used it on cotton shirts I had dyed with Rit dye. I
haven't tried it on dyed wool, but it does not seem to affect
naturally-colored wool.
Thanks to those who gave some links to where more can be purchased! I
have been using mine sparingly because I thought I would never find it
again!
