Thank you, Francis and Clay! Very interesting, and I'm glad to understand the difference. The "industrial" kind I got has a lot of bubbles - plenty! It seems to work just fine. It wasn't really inexpensive - about $25 for a gallon jug - but a little bit goes a long long way. I saw that some people use it for carpet cleaning. I've got enough to do that, I guess, plus my bits of lace...
Thanks again! I appreciate the information very much.
