Time and again the cleaning/washing instructions are "use a mild

It's hard enough to work out what products are detergents let alone
mild.

So without bothering with all the chemistry etc can someone provide
some examples of what I should buy at the supermarket which is "a mild
detergent" or if Fairy Liquid classifies then it's already in the
kitchen cupboard alongside Bicarb of Soda, Soda crystals and bars of
washing soap.



It would help to have more context - e.g. instructions for clothing? car
bodywork? a baby? E.g. Persil Silk & Wool and the like are mild
detergents for clothing but likely to raise a few eyebrows at least if
used on your 6 week old baby while, on the other hand, being unlikely to
keep a shine on your jam jar.
