Cleaning a Mackintosh
A soiled mackintosh can be cleaned by laying it out flat and rubbing it all over with a nail brush and water and yellow soap. When all dirt is off dip the coat in several lots of clean cold water, but do not wring it out. Shake well, and hang in the open air to dry; on no account put near the fire, or in strong sunshine. Hot water must not be used For grease marks, add a little turpentine to the water.
