just getting round to doing yesterday's FT, but stuck on bottom right-hand corner.....4 clues ,answers all interjoined.....
Maybe if I have help with one, please, it will open up the corner....
28A: Cleaner needs some work and a lot of relaxation outside that (9)
??T?R?E??
I think these letters are correct.

detergent? (not parsed)

erg is the work (cgs system)

Thanks, Chris!
Can see the rest of it now.....DET ERG ENT

Detent(e)

hopefully . will now make some progress!

Plus detent(e)?

Yes, thanks too , ab, I 'd just seen that after Chris's answer!

I see the "relaxation " now, but not obvious!

I've done 3 of the remaining 4 clues now, as a result of that answer - so many thanks.......
Last one is
26A: Out of gas, car is parked by rest stop (5)
C?A?E
Maybe 'cease' = rest? (def)
but if so, what is the parsing for the rest of it, please?

Sorry...cease=stop

Out of gas- argon- - AR from c(ar) + rest - ease? Seems tortuous, though.....
