Hi all, thought it would be good to start a thread where people can add little tips & tricks for people. I'll start it off with:
When you get biro on clothing spray with hairspray before washing, worked for me :)
-
I had brown marks in the dishwasher :sick02:
White vinegar on the hottest wash then bicarbonate of soda on the hottest wash. Excellent result. Really pleased.
-
Love it! :thankyou:
-
If you have mould marks on your mastic around windows & baths you can mix a small amount of bleach with bicarbonate of soda into a paste, not runny ( I use an egg cup & teaspoon) and just put it on the mastic, leave for around an hour then wipe off, it's like brand new. Works on grout too. Remember to do a small test first ;)
-
Now that will be useful on the older double glazed windows !
-
I couldn't believe how good it worked. :)
-
I make my own disinfecting wipes using j cloths and zoflora . Keep them on a sealed box, then after I've used them, I Chuck them in the washing machine. Less wasteful than single use ones
-
That's good, how do you do that?
-
I remember 'Zolflora' from years ago, does it still smell as bad as in the 1960s ;D
Good idea as j-cloths launder several times without breaking up.
-
That's good, how do you do that?
So I fold 10 j cloths to fit the box, then I mix 1 and a half capfuls of zoflora with 500 ml water. Pour the water over, put the lid on the box. Then just take a cloth out as needed!
