Cleaning & Laundry - November 2006

Some punk kid wrote all over my car with permanet marker, does anyone have any clue how to get this up? I hate to stiff his parents with a new paint job bill, but I will if I have too.

I put all the patches on with something called "Sew No More". It come in a tube and is milky white and dries clear..almost rubbery. Well I had to take off all the patches due to putting them in the wrong place, and now I cant get the glue off! I tried nail polish remover (w/acetone) which started to disolve it but not very well. I also tried alcohol, Goo Gone, an eraser, and washing it in HOT water to no avail. Any more things I can try before I go out and buy another vest?
thanks for any ideas :)

The skirt is chocolate brown suede and the Tide dribble is right down the front. Can someone suggest how to remove it, please? I am desperate for any viable solution, for the skirt is ruined if I am unable to get it out. Thanks!

Sometimes I am not able to put it into the dryer immediately, but if I don't, it sours after one day! I have noticed that I don't have this problem when I use bleach, but I can't use bleach with darks; anything I can add to my dark loads to keep this from happening?

When I wash my dish towels, they come clean but as soon as they get wet again they smell. That smell even gets on the dishes and my hands, so that after using a few times, I have to get new ones to avoid this. Is there anything that makes them not smell?

At the end of each day, I have 6 or 7 Sixteen ounce plastic bottles that I have used for drinking water throughout the day.

I want to clean the bacteria out of these bottles, refill them with purified water, Cool them in the refrigerator overnight and use for drinking water the next day.

Best way to clean out bacteria and germs ????

Got a really cool black patent leather coat at the goodwill. Looks like someone formerly had put a duct tape design on the coat. The adhesive remains behind. Don't want to ruin the coat, but would like to avoid the dry cleaner

This question is for the Professional Plumber. The arguement in my house is that I say it is not good to flush tampons down the toilet because they will clog over a period of time and are not biodegradable. My sister says they are and won't cause problems. As a result of her flushing them in a year's time, I now have a problem and am having the main drain to the sewer line cleaned. Who is correct? Myself or my stubborn non listening sister? I would think that having the main line cleaned would convince her, but it doesn't?

I have about 6 expensive bathing suits from International Male, that I can not afford to replace. I have only hand-washed them & always hang them up to dry.

The problem is, that after some years of use, they all have black spots, which appear to be mold, or something like it. I have scrubbed, soaked & even machine-washed them to try to get these spots out, with no success. (They are 80% nylon & 20% spandex-& cannot be put in bleach because they are all different colors).

What I'd like to find out is, is this mold? Why & how did they get this way; & MOST importantly, is it possible to get rid of these little black spots?

I soaked it in dishwasher soap and the sticky part remains and suggestions on how to remove the sticky part would be appreciated. I cannot submerge the entire thing in water.

My husband and I have 2 dogs, no kids and both work full time. we can't buy a new house, so I want to feel good about our house, and possibly learn some home improvements myself. I have only been married 1 year and a half, and we just can't seem to keep the house organized and tidy all the time. Am I crazy for wanting a nice clean house to come home to? Is there a simple way to get more space in a closet. we have 4 bedrooms 1 bath.
Thank you for listening to my frustrations, any advice would be greatly appreciated, keep in mind I can't sound like I am nagging my husband lol!!!

How do I make sure I find every little sliver from a broken candle holder? (The tall stem ones)? I broke it when I was making a christmas center piece, it fell over and shattered against the table, onto the floor, (part carpet, part lineolum) over a chair. I have animals and I don't want my two cats and puppy to get the glass in their paws.
I vacummed with a hand vacumm, and swept, but I always seem to find more glass after doing those things. (I am quite clumsy, and break things at least once a month.)
