I have a 2002 Whirlpool top freezer refrigerator. It doesn't get cold enough to freeze anything, freezer may hit 30 degrees tops. I have changed the defrost thermostat, and cleaned the condenser coils, I have also checked the defrost timer and it is working fine. The damn thing is only 4 years old so the compression pump and refrigerent should still be ok. I can't afford $180 bucks to have a service man look at it and I'm really getting frustrated. Can you help?

Is there a paint technique to make wood look like brushed metal? Like a brushed steel or nickel look. I have wooden knobs and pulls that i want to paint to look like a brushed metal. i can't afford to buy actual brushed metal knobs and pulls so need to find a way to make wood look like that.
Also i already have metal fan blades that are painted bright yellow, i want them to be the same effect of the brushed metal look is there a technique to do this look or a product that i can use to give everything that effect?
It might be called brushed chrome. Also i want this a dull finsih not glossy or shiny. Thanks.
Note: Yes i asked this before but only got one answer and was not really what i was looking for, so hoping by asking again will get some other ideas. Thanks in advance.

I think I need to have my a/c unit mainatananced. My 1500' house cost me $320 to cool last month (at 80 degrees).

I thought it had to be charged every couple of years. After talking to this guy he said it doesn't have to be charged unless theres a leak. He said they only get charged a once or twice in their life time.

I'm a new home owner and a woman - I don't want to be taken advantage of.
What do they NORMALLY do during a service? How much should it cost me? What should I expect?

I have a headboard with magic marker scribbling on it ( my children got hold of it) and I can't get it off. I tried goof off, thinner, magic eraser, ect.. Are there any other agents I can use? I really don't want to paint it.

Thanks, Arn

They are 6 panel masonite hollow core door slabs (no cuts for lockset and and hinges), and I plan to keep my existing framing. I would particularly like to know the order that I should do the steps of the installation in, and the materials that I need.

Thank your kindly, for your help with this.
