Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of laundering fabric comprising the step of contacting a solid laundry detergent composition comprising a bleach ingredient to water to form a wash liquor, and laundering fabric in said wash liquor, wherein the bleach ingredient has a log Po/w of greater than 0, preferably greater than 1.5, even more preferably greater than 3.5, wherein the bleach ingredient is capable of generating a bleaching species having a XSO of from 0.01 to about 0.30, preferably from 0.05 to about 0.25, even more preferably from about 0.10 to 0.20, wherein the laundry detergent is contacted to water in such an amount so that the concentration of laundry detergent composition in the wash liquor is from above 0 g/l to 5 g/l, and wherein from 0.01 kg to 2 kg of fabric per litre of wash liquor is dosed into said wash liquor.

Abstract: A method of removing cooked-, baked-, or burnt-on food soil from cookware and tableware comprising delivering a plurality of compositions including at least one organic solvent composition into the same or different cycles of an automatic dishwashing machine and washing the soiled cookware/tableware in the resulting solvent-containing wash liquor. The method includes the storage and delivery of organic solvent compositions and dishwashing detergent composition from multi-compartment containers. The method provides excellent removal of stubborn soils which are very difficult to remove in a conventional automatic dishwashing process.

Abstract: A kit provides improved use of a consumer product by including a consumer product composition and a hand-held conductivity meter calibrated to the consumer product composition. The hand-held conductivity meter has a user-perceivable indicator which is used to indicate when a consumer product solution formed with the cleaning composition has the appropriate concentration of cleaning composition. A method of use employs the hand-held conductivity meter to measure the conductivity of a consumer product solution.
