I've had pretty good luck rubbing in a small amount of Dawn type (grease buster) dish detergent on stains.

Keeping it in MA is pretty good since I am in MT...
Can't comment on B-A as it isn't available here buy I do use BKF which is very useful. However, you asked about oxalic acid. Oxalic acid is the poison found in rhubarb leaves (among other things) and is very good on certain stains. If you use it directly on stains you need to take careful precautions.I've been trying many different home recipies for my laundry stains, but to no avail NOTHING is working. I make my own detergent with Washing Soda, Borax, & Fels Naptha Soap. I REALLY like it for the wash. But for the stains on our families clothes I can't seem to find ANYTING natural that works! I have tried Peroxide, vinegar, washing soda, lemmon juice, and borax mixes. I've tried overnight soaking, 30 min pre-treats, making pastes to scrub before laundering and nothing is working, and I even use vinegar with 2-5 drops of Sweet Orange Essential oil in my rinse water.
I've done research on line and found that BKF, Bon Ami, and Oxi- Boost seem to be the most popular. But it appears that BKF is not 100% natural since it contains oxalic acid(don't know what that is, but researchers say its a chemical). Bon Ami only contains egg shells(all natural, but less abrasive).
So after looking online, both BKF and BA are available on Amazon.com for around $4(which includes shipping), but my local hardware store sells it for $1.99 ea. I will buy them both to see which works better.
I was hoping to get some advice if anyone has tried the Bon Ami vs. BKF for laundry stains, how harmful is the oxalic acid, if the BKF works better and I end up using it instead of the BA. Thanks!!
Nothing in my and I bring simply to the cross I cling.... Have a blessed day everyone!
Air contains chemicals, as does water
A "chemical" by itself is not necessarily harmful, but can be in large amounts.
Check out oxalic acid on Wikipedia. It occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables; you would have to eat pounds of it for it to be harmful.
Hi there. I noticed that you've asserted that air contains chemicals. I was hoping that you could elaborate on that. Which chemicals exactly?

Does this same axiom also apply to elements?
Some, not all.
So does it follow that it's safe to eat Bar Keeper's Friend®?
Perhaps you'd like to conduct an experiment and report back to us.
