Petrol is not typically used for dry cleaning clothes; instead, dry cleaning commonly utilizes solvents like perchloroethylene (perc) or more environmentally friendly options such as hydrocarbon solvents. While petrol can technically clean certain types of fabrics, its flammability and potential for residue make it unsuitable for professional dry cleaning. Using the appropriate solvents ensures effective cleaning while minimizing damage to clothing and reducing health risks.
