Teach the basics of cleaning clothes. Take students behind the scenes at a dry cleaner to discover it's not really dry at all. Watch a spot removal contest just like in the detergent ads except this time the results are realistic instead of magical. Learn which laundry additives are worthwhile, show how and why detergent cleans.

Learn:

  • What is detergent and how does it work? Viewers learn that detergents clean by "making water wetter".
  • Are detergents that advertise "advanced cleaning power" or "whiter than white" really superior?
  • What are fabric softeners? Do they work?
  • Learn about colorless dyes called "brighteners" that whiten without cleaning.
  • Laundry additives--boosters, stain removers, antistatic treatments, softeners.
  • How to interpret care labels on garments.
  • How to select a quality cleaner.
  • Basic techniques for stain removal.
