CLEANING
Chrome fixtures can go from gleaming to spotted with rust in what feels like overnight, especially in bathrooms where moisture sneaks into every crevice. The good news : most chrome rust stains surrender to simple household staples already sitting in the pantry. These seven methods prove that a little elbow grease beats expensive specialty cleaners every time.
CLEANING
Memory foam mattresses can harbor dust mites, dead skin cells, and sweat - up to 10 million dust mites may be living in an average bed right now. We found seven fast, effective methods that keep these mattresses fresh without damaging the foam or voiding the warranty.
TIP OF THE DAY
Does Your Snow Blower Sound Like a Dying Vacuum?
Grease all moving parts with white lithium grease every five hours of run time, focusing on the auger shaft, wheel axles, and chute rotation gears. Cold weather turns old grease into sludge. Wipe away dirt and old lubricant with a rag, then apply a thin, even coat to each joint and pivot point. Proper lubrication cuts friction in half and extends your machine's life by years. |  |
