My toddler spilled polish on my carpet about 3 weeks ago. It just occured to me to "ask yahoo". Any suggestions? Remover didn't work it just sort of faded it. Do I just need to put a rug on it? Hope not.

I can't seem to get the same on my white towels...Does anyone have any ideas besides bleach? Thanks for your help.

They are off-white, so I dont mind using bleach, I just dont want them to fall apart if I bleach them. They are getting those mildew-y grey spots on them and look really dirty. The morning dew must be getting to them and making them wet. When they dont dry out right away, I think they are geting moldy-YUCK! I gotta get it out. What do I use?

What is the best product or way to clean pergo floors without having a "film" on the floor.

I clean mine on my hands and knees with mr clean and then go over it with the Orange Glo Hardwood floor cleaner (in the green spray bottle) with the special mop. I tried to use this floor cleaner only, but the floor just looked nasty and looked like it still needed to be "clean".

any suggestions on good ways to clean pergo flooring and less time consuming.

I have a few stainless steel things in my kitchen, one is a shiny toaster oven. The other is a bread box, has that pewter look. I want them to look great, have tried vinegar and water, microfibre, any other ideas? Can't get the fingerprints off.

Is there something I can add to the wash? I've heard vinegar, but I have a front loader so I'm not sure where/how/when I would add it.

We had a pen leak ink on our coffee table. Goo gone and those products generally strip the finish. Any one have ideas on what to use? We tried Murphy's Oil soap, dish soap and a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

Hi everyone.. Hopefully someone can help me. I Washed my husband white polo shirt with black stripes with a red blouse. And ofcourse the shirt will have pink stains from the red blouse. Does anyone know of a detergent that I can use to remove the pink stains.

Thank you in advance,

It takes me an hour and a half to clean the bedroom, living, dining room, kitchen and bathroom. I don't mean heavy cleaning, just the regular cleaning like dusting, mopping, vacuuming.

I have no problem washing my pillow, but is it even possible? Won't the machine and/or the pillow get ruined?

And yes I change the one I am using every couple days, soak them in bleach, wash them frequently but they still smell. Do I have to buy new ones every couple months or what? I crocheted the ones I am currently using, they are 100% cotton. Any tips?

My elderly neighbor needs replacement bags for a Kenmore Powermate sweeper. It is the canister type, blue in color and the canister says Kenmore Whisperer. It is a 12.0 amp sweeper. I am not sure what bags to buy and she threw away the old one. Any ideas? I am going to Sears but I thought someone could advise me as to what type bags to purchase. Thanks

When I moved back into my old house, I brought along a lot of things I had from the previous place and have not sorted them out. I do not know where to start from as my room is in such a mess and I have things piled up all over the place. Would somebody please give me some advice?

I keep meaning to find out the answer but no-one seems to know. this is a rubber ball, about the size of a squash ball, hanging down from underneath the ironing board on a little chain. there's a hole in it, which tapers inwards.

I wondered whether it might be designed to hold some sort of laundry pen or something, but that seems silly.

Can someone put me out of my misery and tell me what this is supposed to be for?

Just bought a house with hard wood floors, the previous renters were not too kind to them. We can't afford to refinish them right now but how can I make them as good as possible.

Not a cleaning solution, but something I can spray in the air for odor and well as a disinfectant.
