In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

Wear long rubber gloves when hand-washing an item that can't go in the washer, like a leather jacket or shoes. Mix two tablespoons of laundry or dish detergent with two cups (480 mL) of hot water. Soak a sponge with the cleaning solution, wash the item's surface, then wipe away soapy residue with a wet cloth. You can use a toothbrush to scrub hard to reach places. Just remember to throw out the toothbrush and sponge when you're finished. To clean shoelaces, remove them and soak them in the cleaning solution, then rinse them under hot water. Check your item's care instructions and test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before washing the entire item. If you're concerned about using detergent on leather garments or shoes, you can try applying a commercial urushiol removal product. Saturate a dry cloth with the product, rub it onto the item, then wipe it away with a wet cloth. Check your product's label or website to verify it's safe for leather, and test it on an inconspicuous area first. Don't forget to wash garden tools, golf clubs, jewelry, and any other exposed items. Rinsing them with rubbing alcohol will do the trick. If you don't have any handy, or are concerned about how alcohol might effect an object, wash it with dish or laundry detergent and hot water. If you have any doubts about hand-washing a delicate item, it's best to leave it to the professionals. Dry cleaners use chemicals that aren't water-based, so if your garment can't handle any water exposure, a professional can remove urushiol without damaging it. Be sure to keep your clothing in a plastic bag, and let your dry cleaner know that the items were exposed to poison ivy.
Clean non-machine washable items with hot water and detergent. Try using a commercial product on leather. Wash tools and gear with rubbing alcohol or detergent. Take your clothing to a dry cleaner if necessary.
