10 Cleaning Tips for Tough Areas

Author : Brook Noel
Cracks and Crevices: Use paintbrushes and Q-tips® for hard to reach cracks and crevices.Make Cleaning Fun: Transform cleaning from chore to fun with an incentive! Find a few books on audio that you would like to listen to--reserve listening to them for cleaning time.Sticky situations: To remove gum from a surface, press ice against it to harden and then use a butter knife to loosen.Invisible ink: Kids get a bit wild on the last craft project? Use hairspray to remove magic marker ink from surfaces.Murphy's Law: It isn't the Murphy's Law you are thinking of! I'm talking Murphy's Oil Soap®! Used most often on wood floors and furniture, this is a great choice for all around cleaning. It is a natural cleaner that really goes into the crevices and removes direct versus laying a filmy shine on top of a surface as many other cleaners do. This cleaner has been on the market for 90+ years and I often use it to clean counters, walls, etc.Rough mornings: Any coffee drinker can relate to that occasional drip or spill too early in the morning.To remove a coffee stain from cloth/rug dip a cleaning cloth into a beaten egg yolk and then rub the stain. Rinse with clear water – OR - apply a solution of 1/2 teaspoon mild detergent in a pint of water. Blot with towel. If necessary, set towel down and place firm object such as a book on top of it for 10-20 minutes to lift out stain. If t stain remains, blot with a 50-50 solution of water and white vinegar.Shine and sparkle: An old toothbrush and toothpaste work wonders for cleaning jewelry.Not only for the dishwasher: Dissolve ¼ cup of dishwasher detergent in a gallon of very hot water. Let cool a bit so you can handle. Use on refrigerators, stoves, walls, floors, glass –you can use this solution on just about anything! Test a small area first if in doubt. Wipe with a dry cloth after cleaning.Leave film in your camera, not on your dishes: Run ac up of white vinegar through a full cycle in an empty dishwasher to remove excess film.Spotted sinks: To clean light stains from a sink, rub with a fresh cut lemon; for rust stains and darker stains create a paste from borax and lemon juice and scrub stain.Brook Noel is the creator of the best-selling 70 Day Life Makeover Program for Women ..
