(SiO.sub.2).sub.y where M is a cation of the valence n, exchangeable with calcium, x is a number of from 0.7 to 1.5, Me is aluminum or boron, and y is a number from 0.8 to 6, and (2) from 0.05 to 2gm/l of at least one of certain polyphosphonates; as well as washing compositions containing said at least two compounds.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A process of treating soiled textiles by contacting soiled textiles with an aqueous liquor containing at least two compounds inhibiting alkaline earth metal ion precipitation on said soiled textiles as well as optionally at least one surface-active compound for a time sufficient to disperse or dissolve the soil from said soiled textiles into said aqueous liquor, separating said aqueous liquor and recovering said textiles substantially soil free, comprising using: (1) from 0.
