Spring Cleaning Around the House, Apartment.
( An A-to -Z guide )
Part II.


Driveway: Spray engine degreaser on oil stains. Let it stand about 20 minutes, then spray with the hose.
Eyeglasses: Use a few drops of vodka or vinegar on glass lenses (not plastic) for a streak-free shine and no scratches.
Fireplace: Clean smoke-stained areas with an artgum eraser, available at craft shops. Clean smooth stone or brick fireplaces with a solution of one cup trisodium phosphate to two gallons of water. Keep brick fireplaces clean in the future by sealing them.
Garage floors: To clean oil stains from concrete, soak the area with mineral spirits for half an
hour then scrub with a stiff brush. Place towels or newspapers over the area to absorb the grease and allow to dry. After, mix a solution of detergent, bleach and water and scrub again.
Garden tools: Clean mud or dirt from them with a stiff wire brush and a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent rust. If they are rusty, firmly scrub with a steel wool pad soaked in turpentine. Keep them clean and dry by storing them in a bucket of sand.
Golf balls: Clean with a solution, of one-quarter cup ammonia and one cup water.
Grill: Cover the grill area with heavy duty aluminum foil and tightly secure all edges. Heat the coals, and once they've reached their hottest point, put the aluminum foil-covered grill over the fire and "cook" it. Grease and food will burn off and be trapped by the tin foil. Keep your grill clean in the future by spraying it with cooking oil before using it.
Iron: Remove burned-on spots on your clothes by rubbing the bottom of the iron with a heated solution of salt and vinegar. Remove mineral deposits from inside the iron by filling it with equal parts vinegar and water. Let it steam for a few moments, then unplug and leave for a few hours. Empty and rinse with plain water.
Litter box: Don't use ammonia or bleach. Bleach reacts with the ammonia from your cat's urine, creating hazardous fumes. Your cat may confuse the ammonia fumes with a dirty box. Soapy water is fine.
