Heavily soiled fabrics are pretreated before the actual washing process by applying a paste containing a mixture of a nonionic surfactant, at least one nitrogen containing compound selected from certain quaternary ammonium compounds, fatty amine ethoxylates and substituted aminocarboxylic acids, and also an antigel agent and a viscosity regulator to the fabrics and subsequently washing the fabrics in a wash liquor. In one preferred embodiment of the process, a distributing aid trimmed in particular with bristles is used to apply the paste.

Process for the pretreatment of soiled fabrics

There is described a threaded dosing cap (1) for a container opening with internal thread (8) and front seal (9) as well as with a breaker type dosing cylinder (5) lying above the container opening in the closing position. A wetting of the container opening and surrounding region by the product running off out of the dosing cylinder (5) used is to be avoided by structural measures. According to the invention, the dosing space (5) is located above the container neck (3) as well as the front seal (9) thereof, and from the dosing space, as the cylindrical prolongation thereof, a product drain ring (6) extends into the container neck (3).

Threaded dosing cap

A rotary closure cap for loose-material containers consisting of a cap portion and of a rotary disc mounted thereon for rotation about an axis. These components comprise in their main surfaces perpendicular to the axis, pouring openings and a locking assembly which may successively be brought into coincidence by relative movements. The locked position is intended to be childproof. According to the invention, the locking assembly consists of a detent button arranged on a spring tongue of the cap portion and of a detent hole through the rotary disc which is large enough for an engaged detent button to be pushed down by finger pressure. The operation of the rotary closure cap requires both depression of the detent button and rotation of the rotary disc simultaneously.
