How can I clean leather jackets and pants without going to dry cleaners?
Q. I have a bunch of leather coats, pants, ect, mostly black, some brown, a few sand/tan, and one pink, some have smooth surface, some have the fuzzy surface. I would like to clean them but I don't want to take them to dry cleaners. Are there things I can buy to clean them myself? I heard there is some kind of home-dry-clean thing that you put in the dryer with the clothes that need to be dry cleaned, and that when it is done, the clothes are dry cleaned. Is there something out there that would allow people to clean leather at home, either in the dryer or by hand? Is it bad for the health, if it is some chemical? Also, what is the leather conditioner? And how does it work? Can it be done at home? Where to get it? Lastly, how do they… [cont.]

A. you got to take the leather and roll it up in a ball. then gently massage it while you watch some toob. this gets it all loosened up. then when you get some sweat flowing, put some of those oils on there and let it soak it up.

What cleaning techniques do you use to clean your carpets?
Q. I am trying to clean the carpets and keep them clean. Seems like I clean and the spot just keeps coming right back. I am using a carpet cleaner.
Asked by Erica S - Wed Jan 3 01:58:49 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. most any sort of carpet shampoos will attract dirt back to the area you cleaned, try to do it with just water first or white vinegar. be sure to get it as dry as possible, put a white towel over it so if anyone walks on it while damp it will transfer dirt to the towel instead of the carpet, see if that keeps the dirt from returning as fast.

How do you clean a cotton candy maker?
Q. I bought Seville's Cotton Candy Maker today and tried making cotton candy as soon as I got home. It was fun. However, when it comes to cleaning, I was hell. The box said "easy to clean". Unfortunately, the manual/instruction/guide got lost in the store display so I didn't get one, and it was the last unit in the store and I didn't know where else to get it. I managed to clean the outer bowls, no problem, but how do I clean the spinner? the the place where you place the sugar--it has the most sugar residue and I can't remove it from the machine unit...How do I clean this machine?

A. I would assume some really hot water would do the trick. Hot water melts sugar and it's safe to use on food-service machines. Other than that, there might be some kind of sanitizing liquid you are supposed to pour in there, but maybe try the website of the company that makes the thing for that.

Can you clean a Dish Towels in a Dishwasher?
Q. My husband consistantly places dirty dish towels in the dishwasher to clean them. While he is loading the dishwasher, he will place soiled dish towels on the top rack (sometimes bottom rack) to get clean. I am convinced the washing machine would be a more appropriate (you know, with a cleaning detergent for fabric like "Tide" or "Cheer"), but he maintains that this does clean the towels. Please tell me that he is not correct. Any evidence to support you stance would be appreciated.

A. It depends on the company for one. If you're going with a company like Thrifty Maid or the likes of, you're probably looking at a minimum of 3 people in the house. A private cleaner is usually 1-2 depending on what you want done. And that ties into your cost. You can have someone come in and just do a 'surface' cleaning or you can have someone come in and do a detailed cleaning.

How to clean a grotty fridge?
Q. Hello, I need advice on helping a family member clean her home, and the first thing I need to do is clean her fridge - I am sure she's never cleaned it! It has built up muck and stains from goodness knows what on it. I've tried wiping it down for her and soaking the shelves, but can't remove this buildup of "stuff". It also appears that some kind of sticky candy/lolly has been melted in the fridge and in the freezer compartment - I can't seem to prise it off either!! Any suggestions??

A. Start by wiping out any and everything you can with hot water and soap. Follow that by using comet with bleach spray. You may even need to use a razor blade to scrape the goopy stuff off. Then follow up with clorox santizing spray. Its safe to use around food and small kids.

How do i clean a brown procelain tub?
Q. I have a brown tub, not the traditional white. Every time i clean it whatever i use creates white streaks (BADLY). IT's bad. The tub looks disgusting even though i know it's clean. I've tried tub cleaner, CLR, comet (which was a bad choice)..Believe it or not i even tried windex. It helped fade the white streaks, but they are still there. Does anyone know of a product that will actually clean my tub without leaving white streaks?

A. Back in the 70's when we had a dark avacardo bathroom suite I found I had to use liquid cleaners not cream cleaners. Try a liquid cleaner or even dishwashing liquid and rinse well and then buff up with a clean cloth.

A. There is a powder cleaning product called TSP, that you can purchase at any hardware store. Follow the directions on the box. Buy the primer KILZ. After the walls are completely dry, paint them with the Kilz. Then apply a water based enamel paint. Never use a latex paint in the bathroom because moisture gets under it and it starts to bubble and pull away from the wall. All bleach does is change the color of the dirt and sterilize it.
