If you think you are ready to tackle the laundry… Make your list and gather (or buy) the items you will need. Nothing brings you to a stop faster than not having the right thing on hand.
1.
RESTORATION, a product from engleside products, lancaster, PA, 800-553-2637

or substitute oxyclean
2.
a gallon of plain white vinegar (for rinsing)
3.
whink brand liquid rust remover
4.
laundry detergent (whatever you have on hand)
5.
chlorine bleach (OPTIONAL, use only as a last resort)
That’s not so long a list!
