Made of caustic soda?
- Nope. The article has the active chemicals listed now. --Karuna8 03:20, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Ingredients
All right, this article is completely different from what my Comet says. First off, the labels says it contains 0.9% "sodium dichloro-s-triazinetrione dihydrate" and not 1.2% like in the article. Also, there's somewhat more information on what remaining "inert" materials make up the ingredients such as calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate, and it describes the surfactants as "anionic". The rest reads "quality control agents, perfume," and "colour". (Momus (talk) 21:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC))
I cleaned up the ingredients. It might be a bit technical and less precise now (1-5%), but it includes citations and gets rid of the rubbish about unknown ingredients. I came to the page to find out the ingredients. I too was disappointed with the page, so I did some research. It really wasn't hard to do better. Wiredrabbit (talk) 09:12, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
Addictive?
Do people really eat it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.216.156.177 (talk) 05:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Linkk for Ammonia + Chlorine = Danger
I am tempted to research and edit this article, but I never edit anything here, and I am no expert in chemistry or wikipedia standards. Could a link or text be inserted that indicates what chemical reactions happen when ammonia and bleach-based products mix? My mind is still reeling (in more than one way) after walking in on a friend who had just done this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tim1977 (talk • contribs) 19:24, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
I changed the sentence to try to clarify that mixing cleaners is dangerous in general. I don't think acid-base reactions etc, should be in this article, but could be a subject for a new article. The MSDS and product web site are linked now as well.Wiredrabbit (talk) 09:09, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
In popular culture
We could expand the parody section renaming it another way adding other places it is mentioned, like Blondie's 70s song "Rip Her To Shreds" where they sing "She looks like she washes with Comet". UndDerMarlena (talk) 21:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
- Personally I think the parody section is terribly unencyclopedic already and should either be sourced and cited correctly or eliminated. I vote eliminate. Not a bit of the information in it is remotely approaching in either notability or importance. Add the lack of sourcing and it should be nuked simply because it offers zero worthwhile information. Keep in mind I used to sing the stupid grade school songs and thought they were funny and still do, so this isn't about being overly opinionated. I just think it's silliness that doesn't belong here. Any objections? SentientParadox (talk) 01:39, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- I also vote eliminate the Parody section. iamdumdum (talk) 11:53, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
