Cleaning Tips you Need to Know

I am always looking for good products or DIY (Do It Yourself) tools to help clean things in my house or car.  Here are some top ones that I found really work!

Windex wipes for the inside of your car windows.   During Covid we decided to only have the outside of our cars washed.  If you read some of my other posts this is because we were extremely cautious because of my lupus.  So to clean the inside of the car windows I bought Windex wipes and they worked so good to make my car windows shiny and clean.

Almonds broken and rubbed on your hardwood floor helps reduce the look of scratches.  Believe it or not this really works.  You take an almond and cut off the bottom and use the cut side on scratches in your hardwood floors.  The oils and nut meat from the almond work into the floor to fill in the scratch.  This also works with walnuts and pecans if you don’t have almonds laying around.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works on everything and I mean everything!  We use it to really deep clean our kitchen sink.  It works wonders in the shower to clean tough stains.  It also gets rid of rust stains.  We also use it on marks and stains on our walls.  Especially the entry from the garage.  It seems like one of us runs stuff they’re carrying into the walls and causes scuffs and spots.  Not saying who that person is though, Okay, fine it is me! hahahaha!

Wine Away is a product that you don’t have to use that much but it is super handy to have around.  I was drinking a glass of red wine and I tripped over a dog toy and ended up with part of my sweatshirt drenched in a lovely red color. Ugh! I was thinking I might have to retire the sweatshirt when I grabbed my wine away and sprayed it on the wine marks on my sweatshirt and let it sit for about 30 minutes and then threw it in the washing machine.  I was pleasantly surprised that it all came out and I didn’t need to retire my favorite sweatshirt!
