Clay: Use a phosphate based detergent; the old non-eco-safe "Tide"
is the best one I'd recommend.

Yeah, phosphates are bad for the environment: the environment is
mostly dirt, and phosphates get rid of dirt.  Go figure.

(I spent several years growing up in an area where there was enough
clay that if you went out after it rained, your feet would be twice
as big on the way in as they were on the way out.  8-)).
