DID YOU KNOW...? NEW WAYS TO USE OLD PRODUCTS

1. You can use steel wool to:
  • Fill a screw hole that has become too big for the screw. Stuff the hole with steel wool and re-insert the screw.
  • Make an instant pincushion. Stuff an old sock with steel wool and tie tightly for a pincushion that will keep pins and needles rust free.
  • Repel kitchen pests, by placing steel wool around the pipes under the sink.


2. You can use nail polish remover to:
  • Remove sticker residue from glass objects.
  • Unstick your fingers after a superglue mishap.
  • Remove marker and ink from appliances, glass, and stainless steel.
3. You can use olive oil to:
  • Revitalize leather shoes and baseball gloves.
  • Clean greasy hands.
  • Repel moles in the yard. Soak a cloth in olive oil and stuff it into the mole hole. Moles hate olive oil!
4. You can use cola to:
  •  Remove grease stains from the garage floor.
  • •Clear a sluggish drain.
  • Loosen a bolt that is rusted on.
  •  Remove stubborn stains from the toilet. Pour in the cola and wait one hour before scrubbing.
