Dry cleaning and fabric-treatment compositions, methods and articles incorporating the same that are suitable for use in drying machines, such as hot air drying machines found in households, apartments, and laundromats, which are normally adapted to dry wet garments and the like from a washing machine. In some embodiments, the composition includes at least one organic solvent, with the at least one organic solvent forming the greatest weight percentage of the active components in the composition. In some embodiments, the composition also may include water and/or at least one surfactant, emulsifier, perfume, and/or application-specific composition. In some embodiments, the article includes a dispenser from which the composition is selectively dispensed onto a dry garment or other object to be cleaned. In some embodiments, the dispenser includes an internal chamber containing the composition, and the composition is dispensed onto objects prior to placing the objects in a drying machine.

A method for cleaning dry garments, the method comprising: dispensing, from an internal chamber of a dispenser, a dry-cleaning composition onto a garment to be cleaned in a drying machine, wherein the garment to be cleaned is a dry garment that is not suitable for laundering in a household washin
1. A method for cleaning dry garments, the method comprising: dispensing, from an internal chamber of a dispenser, a dry-cleaning composition onto a garment to be cleaned in a drying machine, wherein the garment to be cleaned is a dry garment that is not suitable for laundering in a household washing machine, wherein the dispenser is adapted to selectively dispense the dry-cleaning composition directly onto the garment to be cleaned, wherein the dispenser is selected from the group consisting of an aerosol spray vessel, a pump-actuated spray vessel, and a pressurized spray vessel, wherein the dry-cleaning composition comprises at least one organic solvent, water, and at least one of a pet-odor removing substance, a smoke-odor removing substance, and a urine-odor removing substance;placing into the drying machine the garment to be cleaned that contains the dry-cleaning composition dispensed from the dispenser, wherein the drying machine is a household type drying machine normally adapted to dry wet garments from a washing machine; andtumbling the garment to be cleaned that contains the dry-cleaning composition from the dispenser with heated air in the drying machine to clean the garment with the dry-cleaning composition, wherein the placing and the tumbling do not include placing the garment to be cleaned in a bag. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the dry-cleaning composition further comprises at least one application-specific solvent formulated to remove at least one of ink, rust, red wine, and food stains. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the dry-cleaning composition further comprises at least one of sizing, a moth repellent, a water repellent, a UV-inhibitor, a stain repellent, a brightener, and a dewrinkler. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the placing occurs after the dispensing. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the tumbling includes permitting the heated air in the drying machine to contact the garment to be cleaned as the garment to be cleaned is tumbled with the heated air in the drying machine. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one organic solvent includes at least one paraffin. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the at least one organic solvent further includes at least one glycol. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the dry-cleaning composition comprises more organic solvent, by weight, than water. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises placing, with the garment to be cleaned containing the dry-cleaning composition dispensed from the dispenser, a flexible treatment sheet containing a sheet-dispensed dry-cleaning composition containing active components, wherein the active components include at least one organic solvent that comprises at least 50% of the active components in the sheet-dispensed dry-cleaning composition. 10. A method for cleaning dry garments, the method comprising: dispensing, from an internal chamber of a dispenser, a dry-cleaning composition onto a garment to be cleaned in a drying machine, wherein the garment to be cleaned is a dry garment that is not suitable for laundering in a household washing machine, wherein the dispenser is adapted to selectively dispense the dry-cleaning composition directly onto the garment to be cleaned, wherein the dispenser is selected from the group consisting of an aerosol spray vessel, a pump-actuated spray vessel, and a pressurized spray vessel, wherein the dry-cleaning composition comprises an emulsion that comprises at least one organic solvent and water;placing into the drying machine the garment to be cleaned that contains the dry-cleaning composition dispensed from the dispenser, wherein the drying machine is a household-type drying machine normally adapted to dry wet garments from a washing machine; andtumbling the garment to be cleaned that contains the dry-cleaning composition from the dispenser with heated air in the drying machine to clean the garment with the dry-cleaning composition; andduring the tumbling, contacting the garment to be cleaned with a dry-cleaning composition that is not dispensed from the dispenser, wherein the placing and the tumbling do not include placing the garment to be cleaned in a bag. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the tumbling includes permitting the heated air in the drying machine to contact the garment to be cleaned as the garment to be cleaned is tumbled with the heated air in the drying machine. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the method further comprises placing, with the garment to be cleaned containing the dry-cleaning composition dispensed from the dispenser, a flexible treatment sheet containing the dry-cleaning composition that is not dispensed from the dispenser. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the dry-cleaning composition that is not dispensed from the dispenser contains active components, wherein the active components include at least one organic solvent that comprises at least 50% of the active components. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the dry-cleaning composition that is not dispensed from the dispenser has the same composition as the dry-cleaning composition that is dispensed from the dispenser. 15. The method of claim 10, wherein the placing occurs after the dispensing.
