There's not one, single approach that is right for all textiles. Age, type of fabric, type of soilage all influence what type of approach to take to clean a vintage or antique garment or textile. While there's no one product or method that should be universally applied, Orvus paste is a very useful cleaner that can be used on a variety of textiles. Is it a catchall solution, a miracle cure for vintage linens and vintage garments? No. But it is a pretty good thing.
