cleaning cloth?

Gavin Nugent · 22nd January 2012, 10:50 AM

I have trawled the forum this evening looking for clues of how best to clean cloth and velvet.
Like all restorations, everything restoration or non restoration is personal choice where one would tackle some project, others would say stay, leave it, it is fine....

So, does anyone have any time proven suggestions on how to carefully clean old dirty cloth and velvet with non harsh or destructive methods or chemicals? Perhaps someone can recommend a professional in the field.
