What I actually miss...
White King D. It was cheap but had phosphates and worked well.
Real soap version of Ivory Snow.
Costco's "Clout" bargain powder, also with phosphates, which worked very well. When they pulled the phosphates out, it performed poorly.
And while we are on topic of cleaning products... in the automotive field, in California and probably the rest of the country, chlorinated solvents are pretty much gone from the marketplace. And yet they had many advantages over their substitutions: they were not flammable, they evaporated slowly, and they cut through grease and grime excellently. The replacements are generally highly flammable, mostly acetone or heptane, and evaporate so fast that they don't have much of a chance to dissolve stubborn deposits.
I can understand why they are gone - probably something to do with the ozone layer - but they did serve a purpose. There are, however, still some available. Such as electromotive cleaner, which because it's used on electrical parts that might spark, still have chlorinated solvent that are not flammable. Of course I would NEVER use such a product on, say, brake rotors or drums. Never ever.

I talked to my mother...
...last night on the phone and we were reminiscing about the Hai Karate Christmas and she said: "How well I remember! You all were supposed to use just a little bit and instead you put on half the bottle!" I told her she had a good memory!

Sainsburys Novon was the best. Why they had to screw around with it I have no idea. Used to come in concentrate powder and one scoop did the works! I really miss that product.

Wasn't Pride by Johnson Wax the furniture polish that you let dry to a haze and then wipe it off? I vaguely remember my mom using that.
A few more products I thought of:
Spray and Vac (Glamorene came out with this in 1972. I remember using it on the carpet when we moved into our new house)
Chiffon Margarine (it's not nice to fool Mother Nature)
Glass Wax (oh, those Christmas designs on the windows..and a snap to wipe off after the holidays were over)
Prolong (Texize developed this and sold it mainly at Christmas time. It was added to the water in the Christmas tree stand to keep the tree from drying out)

Yes, Johnson's Pride was a wax that you buffed with a cloth after it had dried. I think it may have been like paste wax that was thinned down with a solvent. It left a beautiful finish on the wood, unlike the smeary Pledge and other spray waxes.
A couple of recollections:
AllWays Soft (Texize...softener which you could use in the wash, rinse or dryer...you used more in the wash than the rinse, and squirted it onto a washrag and tossed it into the dryer--late 70s)
Switch (color safe liquid bleach...I remember the ads on the noon news-mid 70s)
Clorox detergent (late '80s, test marketed in Chattanooga, TN)
Cinch (P&G dishwashing liquid, late '80s, with grit in it for scrubbing, test marketed in Kansas City). unusual swing spout (instead of push/pull). Later name resurrected as a window cleaner (mid 90s)
Monchel (P&G complexion bar...probably a Dove knockoff...mid '80s)
Liqua4 (Dial pearly liquid soap in a bar-soap-sized/shaped plastic bottle, tested in Michigan early 80s)
Borax Sudz (local brand in St. Louis, sold in barrels by Famous Barr...I think the point was to phone Famous' notions department and have a 50 lb container delivered back when department stores delivered)
Famous-Barr actually advertising drug-store stuff (they pulled this out of the stores in the early 80s I'd guess)

Surprising number of brands that were test marketed but never made it nationally. Especially since the New York Metro area is not used as a test market area so we miss a lot of products.
I forgot about Clorox Detergent. I was working in the LA area and apparently it was past test market but not national so every time i went to California, I would stuff some boxes in my luggage. I still have one box left securely wrapped in plastic. It was a pretty good product and low sudsing to boot with a great fragrance.
In the early 80's Clorox also had a non chlorine bleach powder being test marketed in the midwest. I was working in Kentucky and would bring home boxes of "Wave" bleach. Again, great fragrance and not a bad product.
Also forgot Purex Vano liquid starch. Also would ship home that stuff while in California or Arizona. Was much more concentrated than the Linit or StaFlo liquids available here. But once Dial acquired Purex, StaFlo was the remaining brand and Vano bit the dust.
Finally I recalled Brillo Enzyme Detergent also from Purex. Wasn't out long, probably only 3 years. Great packaging and a good product. Disappeared when all the phosphate nonsense started.

Clorox Non-Chlorine Bleach
If youse mean that blue and white box with the huge Clorox logo, it *was* sold here on the east coast. Had several boxes in my stash and am now finishing up the last.
A very good activated oxygen bleach product it was/is. Can be little high foaming but then again it was designed for top loading washing machines.
Am also here to tell you that when used as part of a "boil wash" either on the range or in a washing machine, the stuff is fantastic.

Niagra Instant Starch
in the green box. My Mama used it when I was young to starch shirts and her work dresses. I loved it when she hung out the starched shirts and dresses. When they dried they would be stiff as cardboard. We would bring them in and she would place a sprinkler cap on a Pepsi bottle filled with clear cool water and "dampen down" the clothing. Mama would put the plastic laundry bag filled with starched clothes in the chest freezer until she ironed them. Sometimes Mama would squech my begging and let me starch the pillow cases, dampen them down, and iron them. I would love to have some Niagra Instant starch to starch my shirts in for old time sake. Everytime I go into an old store I look for it.

STOP IT!!!
With all the talk on here about past detergents, soap, cleaning products, beauty and health items, food products and other numerous items mentioned in this forum, you guys are giving me NOSTALGIA OVERLOAD and I don't know how much more I can handle! Robert, PLEASE twitch your nose and take the ones who've responded on here back to the various time periods that have been mentioned!
Frank, I SOOO remember one of the neighbors "throwing" water on the clothes, rolling them up, placing them in her refrigerator and waiting for an employment agency "domestic" to come do her ironing.
To those who mentioned it, I also remember using Clorox Detergent back in the late '80's.
A few more items:
Unguentine Spray (for insect bites, cuts, scrapes and sunburn. There's a mention of it on "I Love Lucy" in "The Fashion Show" episode)
Solarcaine (used mainly for sunburn, it was manufactured by Plough, who also made Coppertone products)
Beads-O-Bleach (made by Purex)
Pine-Sol Cleanser (made by American Cynamide who also made Pine-Sol before it went to SC Johnson, to take on Comet and Ajax, but it was a sorry contender. It also had the most hideous odor to it)
Plunge Drain Cleaner (manufactured by Drackett, who also made Drano, but a weaker version of Liquid Drano and an "economy" brand
Vanish/Sani-Flush Toilet Bowl Cleaners (there's an interesting link to this which I'm adding below)
Kellogg's Puffa-Puffa Rice Cereal (my brother and I ate only a half box of this crap before it was thrown out)
"Blue" Rain Drops Water Softener (don't know who made it, but it was an "economy" version of Calgon)
Calgon POWDERED Water Softener (all I can find these days is the liquid)
Chiffon Dish Liquid (made by Dial)
Aero Wax

Cleaning products that might not be missed today
Back in the day (my Mom told me) they used to "dry clean" clothes with... gasoline...
Kind of dangerous. However I have an old Binks air compressor in my workshop, and the air intake filter says to clean it in... gasoline...
Safer product that followed it was carbon tetrachloride. Until about 20-30 years ago, it was fairly common. You could buy it at supermarkets and hardware stores. Not flammable, but could give off toxic gas if overheated.
And it's effectively banned now because of the effect of chlorinated hydrocarbons on the ozone layer.

Gasoline For Dry Cleaning
Oh yes they did!
One shudders to think now many housewives and anyone else "dry cleaning" with petrol went to their makers after a horrible death, or were badly burned and or injured to the point of disfigurement. IIRC there is a video on the same site that hosts vintage Ironrite movies about what happened to a woman dry cleaning at home with petrol. All one can remember is the opening shot of a woman running screaming from her house on fire.
Many of my vintage housekeeping/laundry manuals from the early part of the 20th century give directions for "dry cleaning" with petrol. However that is going way back just too far a Moi!
"French" dry cleaning (as it was known back then), wasn't always available everywhere, especially if one lived outside a major urban area and or out in the country, so people had to make do.
Turpentine or petrol was also used when laundering clothing as well. My old manuals give directions and amounts to be used. Basically one added either to boiling soapy water, and it was supposed to do away with all the soaking and scrubbing that went with laundry day before washing machines came along. When you think about it first naptha soaps, then modern detergents (which are made from petrol based chemicals), replaced the former.

Up until a few years ago we were graced with Skip Perfect White powder. Best product I ever used on whites, didnt need additives either. Also, I could put the whites in my LG FL on a 30C wash with this detergent and everything came out blinding white. The white towels got 60C though.
We also had the Perfect Black version, but we never tried that. Then all of a sudden, they disappeared off the shelves and now we just have regular Skip powder and liquid. Good stuff, very pricey , but normally a bargain when on sale.

Nobody mentioned Calgonite Dishwasher Detergent. It was about as popular as Cascade or Finish. My parents used it in their GE Mobile Maid circa 1961 or so.

Calgonit was the continental european name for Finish/Electrasol. In 2009 the product was renamed to "Finish" in all countries,probably in order to avoid confusion with "Calgon".
A discontinued laundry detergent I remember in Greece is P & G's Bold 2 in 1-detergent and fabric conditioner in one product.It was launched about 1998 and the last time i saw it on shelves was somewhere between 2003 and 2004. I have no idea how on earth was this combination supposed to work,because normally detergent and fabric conditionel cancel out each other if they mix(anionic vs cationic surfactants),conditioner is supposed to be used separately in rinse cycle.Apparently it didn't work,that's why it was discontinued.
