Question. Chicago IL - My brother-in-law works at an auto supply store. We were sitting around drinking a few beers and he started telling us that you could use brake cleaner to clean stains out of carpet and clothes. It was the Old Style talking, right? Or was he just trying to sell us some brake cleaner?
Answer. Looked it up and there are indeed some cleaning pros who agree with your brother-in-law. Although who is to say they weren’t also drinking a little Old Style when then they were communicating their cleaning wisdom. According to a couple of sources brake cleaner is chemically the same as the stuff professional drying cleaners use to take stains out of wool and silk and other dry-clean only fabrics. Another pro describes how you can dab a little brake cleaner onto a rag and use it to gently clean up many food stains from your carpet. It’s up to you, but I think I’ll just keep taking my silk underwear to the dry cleaners.

It’s a sad thing to be clueless. Even while The Clueless Cleaner believes that cleaning can be fun and hopes to provide a bit of entertainment, Professor Q hopes that his research might point some folks in the right direction in terms of solving perplexing cleaning issues.
Here’s what you need to know. Other than being fictitious, Professor Q is just like you and me: Fallible! He knows nothing about cleaning! Out of the goodness of his heart he’ll look it up when someone has a truly clueless inquiry. He has dozens of reference books and of course the Internet. But he has not checked out these solutions personally and as far as he knows the experts he researches might be just as clueless as the rest of us. Probably not, but who knows?
So do your own due diligence before proceeding with any cleaning solution. Just one more slight word of caution. The Professor has noticed that a lot of these cleaning experts say the same thing over and over again, doubtlessly to cover their own tails. They say, “any one trying a cleaning solution should test it in an inconspicuous place–whether you are cleaning your silk blouse, your carpet or your driveway. Find an out of the way spot to make sure the cleaning solution doesn’t cause more problems than it cures.”
