I use a little book called, "Clean & Green" that I bought at Amazon.com.
"485 ways to clean, polish, disinfect, doedorize, launder, remove stains-
even wax your car without harming yourself or the environment."

Nifty little paperback that seems to go back to how women cleaned before the
introduction of the new cleaners.
