I don't know if it is widely available but I got my starter set in Amazon. Also you can use Milton instead of bleach (not as smelly). The Christmas festivities are gently taking shape. Thank you for your lovely visit.

Milton is maybe better than Amuchina (refined bleach and disinfectant that I buy at the pharmacy) because I've never gotten good removal of color, what would take off with water alone. In your honor, I'll get the Milton, if on the market here, and I will do further tests! You never know when the trial can give new results ... I'll try soon! <br />(I deleted the comment because the copy and paste from the translator had come very bad ...)Rita Vasellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07647144861301178572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857427025159398186.post-55280618686162824122013-11-29T11:52:07.271-08:002013-11-29T11:52:07.271-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rita Vasellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07647144861301178572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857427025159398186.post-29978550323056688512013-11-29T09:57:00.528-08:002013-11-29T09:57:00.528-08:00Very interesting post Polly, hace a nice wekeend! ...Very interesting post Polly, hace a nice wekeend!
