Cleaning Made Easy

By:Trevor Russell


Finding time to clean in a fast-paced environment has become more of a chore than ever. Women with hectic schedules can attest that convenience and effectiveness are key when dealing with the overabundance of stains, smudges, dirt and grime encountered daily. While cleaning is never a preferred activity, there are surefire methods to make the process less excruciating. Check out these helpful hints to save some extra time and energy:



Removing Red Wine Stains From Upholstery



There's nothing quite as unsightly as a red wine stain on a light-colored couch or love seat. To remove red wine stains from upholstery, simply blot the area with a paper towel and sponge with warm water to dilute the stain's concentration. Blot again and sprinkle talcum powder on the remaining stain. Let the powder stand for 2 or 3 minutes and then brush off. Repeat the sponging and blotting if the stain remains.



Removing Burned Food



From Pots and Pans



Scorched food on pots and pans can cause a real headache when it comes to washing dishes. Often, no amount of elbow grease will remove a stubborn burned spot. Try pouring full-strength bleach on the scorched area and let it soak for 10 or 15 minutes. Fill the pan with hot water and continue the soaking process. This should clean off the entire area of burned residue. Remember to wash the pot or pan with soap and water to remove any leftover bleach.



Quick and Easy Cleaning at Home and On-the-Go



Women who want an easy-to-use cleaning tool with on-the-run convenience should use the WD-40 No-Mess Pen. Designed specifically to meet the needs of women, the No-Mess Pen is the perfect tool for removing sticker adhesive from picture frames and clothing; erasing crayon marks from floors, walls and counters; and getting rid of scuff marks on floors and other surfaces.



The WD-40 No-Mess Pen-the size of a highlighter-is low in odor, allows precision application, and is a handy item to keep in a laundry room, kitchen utility drawer, office desk drawer or garage. The pocket-sized, pen-shaped applicator is also ideal on-the-go, fitting into pockets, glove compartments, tool kits, purses, travel bags and just about anywhere else.



Young artists may forget where the artwork ends. Don't worry. A special, no-mess pen makes it easier to remove crayon marks.
