I've heard of using rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle, I think mixed 50/50 with water, instead of shower fresh.

This isn't for a room but for an automobile. Use rubbing alchol on tree sap and it comes right off.

i had a red wine stains on my light ivory coloured leather sofa we had a few people over and the wine wasnt noticed until the next day. i used lemon cif on my sofa to remove a wine stain and wiped it off with a baby wipe. i regularly clean it with a lemon and always wipe it off with a baby wipe. this has completely removed the stain no hard rubbing needed, it keeps it nice and fresh also.

re: Grandpa's a Honey! Okay, I had to think about this one for awhile... but I have to say the only thing I can suggest is rubbing oil or bees wax into your wood, so that it acts as a protective barrier to any dirt (or honey!). Your wood will love you for it. As for your Grandpa, maybe a cute reminder would work. Take some construction paper, cut out a circle, and glue it to the top of the honey jar. Write in something like 'Please wash-up, Honey!' or the like. :) I think it's sweet (er, pun not originally intended...) that you have lovingly cleaned up each time with no fuss to your Granddad. :) Don't see that kind of respect from a lot of folks these days. :) Take care. Hope it helps!

Getting ink out of clothes. Try clear rubbing alcohol. Have an old towel under the stained garment. Pour the alcohol on the ink and blot stain with clean rags or paper towels. You don't have to remove all of the ink by blotting; launder the garment when you are tired of blotting the ink stain. Use a stain remover over the alcohol before laundering.

Problems with small flies in the house? We’ve got some cheap rubbing alcohol which we spray at them and it knocks them out! It’s better than spraying pesticide all over the indoors, and any excess just evaporates away. I guess you could also call it humane too!

If you want to make your rubber gloves last longer then turn them inside out and stick sticking plaster to the fingers - it'll stop them rubbing through so quickly.
