Someone mentioned they have a box that looks like Dryel but is generic
so one can do dry cleaning in his own home.


Good idea?


I never knew or don't remember why do it yourself dry cleaning
machines at laundromats disappeared.


What I miss are the small bottles of dry cleaning fluid, carbon
tetrachloride I believe, with the dauber top to apply the fluid to
your clothes to clean a small spot on a suit or other wool garment.The
spray stuff they sell now, the kind that dries into a white powder,
never seems to work very well.


Naptha works wonders
