I want Draco to cast a stain removal charm. I thought it would be fun if the spell matched up with the name of a popular laundry stain remover in the UK. Unfortunately, 'Biotex', 'Wizz', and 'Vanish' are all I can find... and none of them strike me as particularly useful. I mean, vanish makes sense, but that's what 'evanesco' does; Draco would probably die before casting a 'wizz' charm; and 'biotex' would make no sense to a wizard.
'Persil' is a brand of laundry soap, so maybe that would work...? Or maybe I'll go with a 'borax' charm...
The only bright spot (hah!) in this research was the following (quoted directly):
Vaporesse
An ingenius liquid to make ironing an altogether pleasing experiance in two different scents.

Whee! Because if I only had perfumed ironing water, ironing would cease to be a chore!
Oh, and the existence of a cleanser called Cillit Bang also amuses me.

Richard Armour, in his fantastic "Twisted Tales from Shakespeare," states that Lady MacBeth washes her hands with Glee... which he identifies as a well-known Scottish detergent.
