His hands get so dirty looking and we tried so many products from stores, catalogs, online etc... even after they are washed and scrubbed - they look dirty. He's embarrassed to eat at a restaurant or have dinner at a friends. What can he do to get them clean looking?

I had the 64-pack crayon box with the built-in sharpener in my backpack and the crayon shavings fell out of the bottom of the box.

I was going to get a drink of water a couple minutes ago and saw a man cleaning it with something. So I came back and filled my bottle up with water after he left. It smelled like he cleaned it with paint thinner or varnish. It smelled pretty bad...not like ammonia or chlorine or bleach. So I was wondering, what do they clean it with normally? The container he was cleaning it with was sort of boxy and aluminum. Maybe he was trying to poison the fountain? He was a maintenance for my dorm floor (in college). I feel kind of high right now...do you think I'm imagining or is the chemical to blame?

Oh Dear!

I hope someone can help. I have a wonderful skirt, 94% rayon and 6% spandex. I was doing the wash and some bleach was splattered on it making some horrible bleach spots. Besides the "sharpie" method of coloring them in, does anyone know a remedy. Please, this is my favorite skirt!!

Thanks :)

I am trying to get the mothball smell out of a 40 year old christening outfit. So far I have washed it in a pot of hot water with Rit white wash laundry treatment & detergent. I rinsed it & now have it soaking in the sink with detergent. I guess I'll soak it in fabric softener next. If anyone has any knowledge on what to do to get the smell out, I would really appreciate it. I am trying to avoid taking it to the dry cleaner.

I am going to get a new mini fridge, and I don't know if it is necessary to clean it. Do most people clean it first or just plug it in and use it ?

It is a pig-sty. No exaggerations. I want to clean it all up so that my mother doesn't have to do it when she (hopefully) emerges from her textbooks. So I really want to please her. Please help!

I have seen them repeatedly, usually in groups of five to ten, on my kitchen counter. I think they even infested my coffee maker so I had to get rid of it. No matter how well I clean, they stay. I have set out ant traps and they don't seem to be helping. Tonight I found them in my pet rabbits' veggie dish for the first time, which was my final straw. What can I do about them that will be safe for us and our bunnies? Thanks

Oh crappers!! I just accidentally drew a line into my bf's moms brand new beautiful suede sofa! They come back from vacation tomorrow! How the heck do I remove it? Or.....should I just leave it and pretend I don't know about it? I might just make it worse and more noticeable if I try to remove it!! It's a very light beige color and the ink is black =/

Okay folks, this is the situation. So after dinner, you want to wash the dishes. You fill up a sink of water and squirt some detergent in. After you scrub off the remains on the dishes and what not, do you need to rinse it with clean water or you can just put it on the drying rack? The detergent bottle doesn't provide an instruction on using it.

Our Sears Kenmore (White Westinghouse) just broke down after 15 years (!), so we need a new one. I know I can check on line, but this is faster. I also need to know approximately how much they cost for my budgeting purposes. Thanks for the GOOD answers in advance.
