Looking for something to clean a grease spot from a shirt or tie. There used to be carbon tetrachloride and then is was banned. Then there were other cleaning liquids. I remember, in the late 70s, using triclorethane for cleaning circuit board, not fabrics. In the factory, they almost used it like running water. They even washed their hands with it. But, there has always been some stuff available at the hardware store which was a good cleaning solvent for fabrics. It had a similar name but was supposed to 'be safe'. You could buy it in quarts or even pints, in a metal rectangular can, like the cans you get mineral spirits and lacquer thinner. Now, non seem to be around. I searched google and about all I got was rubbing alcohol. Any ideas for something to clean a spot of grease from fabric.
