Presumably these are products available in the US. Got no idea what
they are apart from a detergent, of which there are many, and a stain
remover, again there are many types.
Can I also add to this the warning that not all detergents are safe to
use - as we found out when one of my students used literally a couple of
drops of a very well known (UK) brand of washing up liquid in water to
remove a grubby mark from a small piece of lace she had made. The *ecru*
DMC Broder Machine 30 was bleached to snow white, and the gold coating
on the Madeira Metallic Gold 6 she had used was stripped to the orange
under-core - not the effect she wanted at all. I assume that although
"kind to hands", the grease removing element in the detergent was
concentrated lemon juice or similar.
