Default My memory is failing me but there is a traditional way

Hi All

My memory is failing me but there is a traditional way of cleaning things like webbing and it involves some common items of the 30s and 40s. For some strange reason my head is saying corn meal. Who has got a 40s woman's house guide or a soldiers guide? I know that I seen it.

Head is saying that it was very finely ground corn meal to dry clean the webbing.

Cheers Phil
