I found the best bathtub cleaner...

[MomToTwoBoys]

WD-40.



I tried it on the inside of my bathtub because I had alot of body grime and the classic ring around the tub. It worked better than anything I've found! The thing with the WD-40 is that you have to use a second cloth or something and apply a product to the tub that'll get rid of grease. If not, the tub will be super greasy and you could slip/fall on the surface.

would a quick rinse of vinegar cut it, do you think?????

The last thing I need to to slip slide while I splish splash... what exactly do you use as an after-cleaner?

[MomToTwoBoys]

I used Vim Bleach cleanser. You can also use any product that has orange oil in it. I have this total bathroom cleanser that has orange in it that gets grease off stuff. I haven't tried vinegar but it may work.

[pollypurebred39]

Dawn dishwashing liquid would cut the grease.

Treat your shoes

Spray WD-40 on new leather shoes before you start wearing them regularly. It will help prevent blisters by softening the leather and making the shoes more comfortable. Keep the shoes waterproof and shiny by spraying them periodically with WD-40 and buffing gently with a soft cloth. To give the old "soft shoo" to squeaky shoes, spray some WD-40 at the spot where the sole and heel join and the squeaks will cease.


Separate stuck glassware

What can you do when you reach for a drinking glass and get two locked together, one stuck tightly inside the other? You don't want to risk breaking one or both by trying to pull them apart. Stuck glasses will separate with ease if you squirt some WD-40 on them, wait a few seconds for it to work its way between the glasses, and then gently pull the glasses apart. Remember to wash the glasses thoroughly before you use them.


Free stuck Lego blocks

When Junior's construction project hits a snag because some of the plastic blocks are stuck together, let WD-40 help get them unstuck. Spray a little on the blocks where they are locked together, then wiggle them gently and pull them apart. The lubricant in WD-40 will penetrate into the fine seam where the blocks are joined.


Tone down polyurethane shine

A new coat of polyurethane can sometimes make a wood floor look a little too shiny. To tone down the shine and cut the glare, spray some WD-40 onto a soft cloth and wipe up the floor with it.


Remove strong glue

You didn't wear protective gloves when using that super-strong glue and now some of it is super-stuck to your fingers! Don't panic. Just reach for the WD-40, spray some directly on the sticky fingers, and rub your hands together until your fingers are no longer sticky. Use WD-40 to remove the glue from other unwanted surfaces as well.


Get off that stuck ring

When pulling and tugging can't get that ring off your finger, reach for the WD-40. A short burst of WD-40 will get the ring to slide right off. Remember to wash your hands after spraying them with WD-40.


Free stuck fingers

Use WD-40 to free Junior's finger when he gets it stuck in a bottle. Just spray it on the finger, let it seep in, and pull the finger out. Be sure to wash Junior's hand and the bottle afterward.


Loosen zippers

Stubborn zippers on jackets, pants, backpacks, and sleeping bags will become compliant again after you spray them with WD-40. Just spray it on and pull the zipper up and down a few times to distribute the lubricant evenly over all the teeth. If you want to avoid getting the WD-40 on the fabric, spray it on a plastic lid; then pick it up and apply it with an artist's brush.


Exterminate roaches and repel insects

Don't let cockroaches, insects, or spiders get the upper hand in your home.
Keep a can of WD-40 handy, and when you see a roach, spray a small amount directly on it for an instant kill.


To keep insects and spiders out of your home, spray WD-40 on windowsills and frames, screens, and door frames. Be careful not to inhale the fumes when you spray and do not do this at all if you have babies or small children at home.

Clean and lubricate guitar strings

To clean, lubricate, and prevent corrosion on guitar strings, apply a small amount of WD-40 after each playing. Spray the WD-40 on a rag and wipe the rag over the strings rather than spraying directly on the strings-you don't want WD-40 to build up on the guitar neck or body.


Keep wooden tool handles splinter-free

No tools can last forever, but you can prolong the life of your wood-handled tools by preventing splintering. To keep wooden handles from splintering, rub a generous amount of WD-40 into the wood. It will shield the wood from moisture and other corrosive elements and keep it smooth and splinter-free for the life of the tool.


Unstick wobbly shopping-cart wheels

Attention supermarket shoppers: Keep a can of WD-40 handy whenever you go food shopping. Then when you get stuck with a sticky, wobbly-wheeled shopping cart, you can spray the wheels to reduce friction and wobbling. Less wobbling means faster shopping.


Remove chewing gum from hair

It's one of an adult's worst nightmares: chewing gum tangled in a child's hair. You don't have to panic or run for the scissors. Simply spray the gummed-up hair with WD-40, and the gum will comb out with ease. Make sure you are in a well-ventilated area when you spray and take care to avoid contact with the child's eyes.


Break in a new baseball glove

Use WD-40 instead of neat's-foot oil to break in a new baseball glove. Spray the glove with WD-40, put a baseball in the palm, and fold it sideways. Take a rubber band or belt and tie it around the folded glove. The WD-40 will help soften the leather and help it form around the baseball. Keep the glove tied up overnight, and then wear it for a while so it will begin to fit the shape of your hand.
