No, just a qualification as an approved trainer for The British
Institute of Cleaning Science.

So in those years long gone by using the likes of vinegar, salt,
water, and baking powder was fruitless was it.


Probably, but they had bugger all else. Thats why disease was rife. They
developed decent detergents & sanitizers as soon as they knew how.

I don't think so. They
may not have any scientific merit but they worked and still work
today.


If they had no scientific merit - how did they work then? 'Natural
goodness'? 'Cosmic Vibrations'? 'Ley Lines'?

Look up 'Surfactants' then you might understand how detergents work.
Baking powder salt and vinegar do not possess the same properties.

I can unblock my drain
with baking powder salt and vinegar. You may use Mr. Muscle or
similar, yours costs £3 mine £1. They both have the same effect and I
see no difference. Not all of us can use bought products from Tesco.


Complete and utter bollox. You simply cannot unblock a drain with baking
powder salt and vinegar. You could make a cake or season your fish &
chips, but there is no way those items can dissolve a typical drain
blockage.

BTW, I don't bake cakes using sodium hydroxide, neither do I use sulphuric
acid on my chips.

Disease is rife today too Dave.

Anyway your manner of posting I can do without I find you too aggressive
with your Bollox talk and Bugger this and that.
I will leave it there thanks and bid you farewell.
