A reference collection of textiles is first described. For dry cleaning the author recommends in particular tetrachlorethylene used in conjunction with water plus detergent. For wet cleaning he uses one of the Levapons (made by Bayer). Repairing and reinforcement with a backing material are next described. For moth proofing full details are given of the use of two Eulans, one aqueous, the other applied in an organic solvent. For strengthening by impregnation a propenoate synthetic plastic has been developed (formula undisclosed). The material is flexible, yet completely non-tacky. Sprayed on a fabric it is in visible ezcept on the closest inspection.
