Dirty Talk

QUESTION? We won a rugby shirt last year (matchworn and signed). I intended to frame it straight away but it hung on a hanger for a while in our hall. It didn't smell initially but after the sun had got to it, we did notice a smell. So I have two questions - 1. How can I wash the shirt removing any odour whilst not washing off the signature? and 2. How do I remove the small from the hallway, it seems to have impregnated the wall?????

This is a question really. I have an 18 month old puppy. A few weeks ago my cat decided to urinate on the carpet in the living room. The pup being the pup (and male) decided to urinate over the top of it. Now the room is absolutely stinking. I have tried washing the carpet a few times and disinfecting it, but nothing is working. How can I get rid of the awful smell? It's really embarassing when people are in the living room. I can tell they can smell it. PLEASE, PLEASE someone help me. I would really appreciate the help.

all ways vacuum your bath or toilet mat befor washing it

Put a capful of thick bleach in your washing mavhine drawer without washing powder,put all your White towels or Cotton underwear and socks pop on a boil wash and it cleans your machine aswell as your whites..

I add a cap full of bleach, and a drop of dish washing liquid to hot water in my sink and soak my dishcloths over night. In the morning the cloths are clean and sanitized and the sink is sparkling and disinfected.

After washing my lace curtains I hang them up with the window open so they diffuse the house with a nice fresh scent while they dry.

I have 2 dogs and the one keeps having accidents on my area rugs. They are dark colors and now they have really dark stains on them. I've tried washing them with the hose and I tried white vinegar and I've even bought the carpet cleaner stuff at the store and it still won't come out. HELP!

OK, yet another tip that is simply someone begging for some help on shifting some stain or other ! In this case its me, and I have a problem with oil staining the paintwork on my car ! ( i had a major oil leak and it went EVERYWHERE!) Doesn't help my car is white, and since washing off, there is still a residue where the oil got onto the paint. I have plastic painted bumbers which are badly affected also.... can anyone offer me a suggestion as to what can shift these oilspots without damaging the surfaces ??? HELP !

cookers- when your stainless steel in the oven are brown with brunt on food, place them in a bath of hot water with a sprinkle of washing powder and leave over night - the next day the dirt will slide off when you wash them and also removes any stains in your bath it kills two birds with one stone.

Not a tip, a question. How do you clean the dust and dirt from fabric items that can't go into a washing machine? I have a couple of items like a few hats, a pair of small stuffed animals, and some fabric covered boxes that are gathering dirt and have no idea how to clean them. Thanks.

how do i get my washing machine smelling lovely and fresh and not like a smeely armpit?

i need a bit of help.... in america, my grandma told me to use soilax on the floors to wash them....i'm not quite sure if it cleans it. is there a cleaner way of washing floors??

Although I have improvised with an episode from K&A this one is a gem and worth the effort. Grimy ceramic tiles...biological washing up liquid (used for clothes - doesnt matter how cheap it is) mixed in warm water and a little bleach. Gloves, scrubbing brush, damp cloth and a window squeegee (I think thats how it's spelt). Have another bucket to hand filled with warm water, start scrubbing with the floor brush (the one like cinders used) scrubbing in circular motions, get a damp cloth to wipe the parts which you have scrubbed, then get your squeezgee and wipe away the excess water, get a clean mop soak in the bucket of warm water (prepared earlier) and wash over the part you have scrubbed and squeezgeed, leave to dry and admire your hard work!!!! And your arms will be lovely and toned too!!

when i need to clean my gas barbeque i spray on oven cleaner and steam it off with my steam cleaner it comes up like new. for grease hard to remove i add a bit of washing up liquid with water in a spray bottle.

Not a tip, but a question. I've been using a polish on my furniture which has made the surfaces sticky, and I've tried all sorts of stuff to wash it off (soapy water made with washing - up liquid, washing powder) all to no avail. Can anyone help me ? I'm afraid to use meths as has been suggested for fear of ruining the finish permanently.

in your washing machine if you have limescale at the back of it in the pipes after you put washing podwer put calgon ect... or other stuff the it makes your pippes spick +spam

if you have got lines at the botom of the bath? and you cant get the dirt off? use a old washing - up brush and start brushing for sixsty secounds. it works for me.

WELL THIS ISN'T A TIP BUT HOW CAN YOU GET YOUR KITCHEN FLOOR A REALLY GOOD SHINE? AFTER A LONG TIME OF WASHING IT IT STARTS TO GET A DULL FINISH.

if your fed up with bad smells in your washing machin run it on a long 80c wash with vinigar or bleach
